Identi.ca is great - the Lconica software is something
we're looking at implementing for a community.

However, although I'm on both Identi.ca and Twitter,
it's the latter that most others (beyond the Free
Software community) are on. Any suggestions as to
how to change this are most welcome :-)

btw I'll be discussing this at one of the "Small
Steps to Sustainability" workshops, as part of 
FACT Liverpool's Climate for Change exhibition.
The workshops are an after-work drinks event, 
each Wednesday at 6pm from March 18 to the end
of May. Please feel free to come along :)
