On a distributed microblogging network

identi.ca / laconica

Open a wordpress blog. (or any other blog service)<p>Write short posts (less than 500 chars)<p>Use your reader of choice (Google Reader is the best)<p>There you have it, a microblogging network.<p>PS. use Atom feeds for a better experience.
