It amusingly says "We ask for a Twitter or Facebook account to help find your friends on Subjot. We'll never post to Twitter without your permission".<p>So it will post to Facebook without your permission?

There was some talk about the need for this on Google Plus: <a href="http://news.cnet.com/8301-30685_3-20080274-264/hashtag-creator-brings-his-idea-to-google/" rel="nofollow">http://news.cnet.com/8301-30685_3-20080274-264/hashtag-creat...</a><p>It is good to see that somebody made an implementation for this, but it might be hard to get people to post information to this service instead of/in addition to Google+/Twitter.

I'm pretty happy to see mutations and variations like Subjot, and, yes, even Heello to appear; Twitter seems to have become too large to do a lot of experimentation themselves (not surprising: every change of the fundamental format would have massive ramifications).<p>In addition to "substreams" (probably the defining feature) &#38; comments, Subjot interestingly keeps a posting length limit (250 characters).<p>As Google+ demonstrates (IMVHO, of course), _some_ limit actually is a good thing in terms of scannability, "follow cost" &#38;c.<p>Those newspaper folks didn't invent the lead for nothing.

I don't understand why apps make twitter and facebook as the only gatekeepers. Why not have an independent signup?

Subjot solves the one problem everyone hates when following, circling, or friending people you enojoy. There is no longer the "Hey everyone look how cute my dog is" syndrome. Best of luck to Chris Carella and everyone at Subjot!

One day with Subjot and I am really impressed. Has a nice feel and fits in nicely between my Twitter and Google+ postings.

I'm a looking for a social network which would let me tweet longer post (don't want to tweet longer via an isolated blog). Google+ does not and I'm already starting to hate Google+ (out of protest for their naming policy).

I love Subjot. Much better than Twitter because there is less 'noise'
