Why decentralizing Twitter is hopeless

PS: As has been pointed out by several emailers, the idea of relocating cities in the virtual world appeared in a piece I wrote yesterday, where I said indeed it does happen. It can't happen in the real world. But in defense of echovar, it would only happen if there were a war where platform vendors were fighting in vain to lock us in, and only when Twitter was so mature that we understood every nuance of how it's used. Yes, we are, today, locked into Twitter. And I'm not comfortable about that.

the decentralization debate

The debate over whether Twitter has become so important a form of communication that it should be standardized -- and thereby removed in some sense from the company that created it -- has been going on for awhile now, and recently reared its head again on the Gillmor Gang, the podcast run by tech guru Steve Gillmor. As described by blogger Chris Gerrish, the discussion focused on how a more decentralized Twitter-style "micro-blogging" standard could effectively take over from the service, something Gerrish calls "A Venezuelan moment," in what I assume is a reference to Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez and his various nationalization schemes.

The iPhone's recently released firmware 2.0 Beta 5 has a 3G on off switch for users. Underneath, there's a warning that 3G browsing will kill your battery faster. While that's more proof of the upgraded hardware we already expect, what I find most interesting is the manual control. It's not too late to change it, but I was hoping that Apple would approach the 3G/2G power consumption and speed tradeoffs by having an automatic toggle for 2G and 3G: It could have a smart mode that would turn 3G off to save battery for background email downloading, weather checking and standby; and then turn it on for YouTube, maps, web browsing and iTunes music store downloading.

He did a little digging and found that the code had been in place since 1983 - meaning that pretty much every BSD system out there, including OSX probably, has had this Rip van Winkle of a bug sitting in it this whole time.
