I've fed my Jaiku feed into FriendFeed. Apart from that, no.

@edythemighty Thank you, I will check out those tools.
@smurph, @dotlizard, The first thing I did when I opened my Jaiku account was feed my Twitter stream in. Then I thought, "Wait a second, now my Twitter stream is going to go into FriendFeed twice. Once from Twitter and a second time from Jaiku." It's kinda hard sometimes to remember where one is feeding in what nowadays..
I like the Jaiku idea that one can selectively follow friend content.
-
@smurph That's true, but what Scoble does is give FriendFeed viral momentum. It's very hard to play catch-up on that.

Looking at my FriendFeed stream, these comments don't feed into FriendFeed, only the Jaikus do. That's a real pity.
-
@smurph, yes, cronologically FriendFeed is in competition with Jaiku. But, with Robert Scoble pushing FriendFeed, Jaiku is currently falling so far behind it's not even funny.
-
To me, being brand-new to Jaiku, it looks as if Jaiku is more in competition with FriendFeed than with Twitter.
-
beng, but if someone doesn't subscribe to my Jaiku feed, do they see in their feed when I @ username them (like in Twitter), or do they only see it when they add me as a contact?
-
sconsult, Twitter will master the scaling issues. They have the funding and bright technical folks. They're just suffering now because they initially chose an inappropriate application architecture. But, they will solve it.
-
I can now see this, but it's only because I've subscribed to your feed, right?
-
One HUGE feature of Twitter that I immediately notice is missing on Jaiku, is the @ replies that can put you in touch with anybody.
-
beng, how would you describe the current user base (apart from relatively small)?
