I agree with the "napster of this decade" because the outside agencies will have no idea what's going on unless people start making the files public or aren't selective enough and let a rat in. Otherwise it's as closed as e-mailing around files, only this time the cap could be 100mb.

I too want to be minimalistic in the "communities" that's why I want pownce to replace twitter or Twitter to start adding some more features. Right now I see myself only using facebook as my alternative online presence outside of this site, twitter is more of a tool to mini-post to this site and to give others the option to see those mini-posts through twitters accessibility. Pownce would then just replace the mini-posts/asides to this sites and solely do the interaction (like comments) over at that domain.

I love the mini-posting through Twitter right now. It really frees me from posting whatever I want as fast and as remotely as I want, it's like having a stryker blog.

If I do use pownce to replace my mini-posts you'll have to register if you want to comment, so i hope you at least register to comment.

Yeah, if I'd known you needed a noid invite, I could have sent you one too... just be sure to be a good seeder.

As for Pownce, I got your invite, but I don't know whether I can really dive into another one of these things right now. I would really like to keep my online presence as streamlined and minimalist as I can; I was even somewhat reluctant to do Facebook, but I'll probably keep that up for a while at least, but not do any crazy add ons.

One selling point to Pownce for a lot of people might be the file sharing piece. I can easily see this becoming the Napster of this decade; since it can be fairly closed off from public view, any files you trade with your friends are fairly private, at least until they get a subpoena to start "tapping" your account. :)

I'm sure it will take off and gain quite a bit of ground, if for no other reason than Kevin and his crew are behind it, assuring it at least a decent amount of publicity.
