The problem with those is no one I know uses them, and they're generally happy with Twitter. And I don't disagree with them.

app.net wanted more than I could afford to follow more than a few people, but the others look interesting. I'll give them a look.

edit: ello won't accept my email for the invitation request. Quitter looks like a clone of Twitter, and barely anyone in the public timeline speaks English. Not sure what to do with this.

edit 2: It looks like it took the request and sent me ten different confirmation emails while showing an error on the form. This doesn't make me feel good about the service.
