Still via the use of OAuth and a number of clever aggregators it should be possible to collect all the commends of the feeds concerned. Maybe even remove duplicates and echos.

I think ultimately our conversations will reduce in size - but our social groups will become tighter. Many people have commented on the ways in which they use tools differently - Twitter for this, Plurk for that... The conversations will be similar to those in real life - a silly one followed by a professional one. In many ways i think this explosion is part of the natural evolution of relationships and conversations online - I think that it’s a sign of the maturity of social networking – at the start, as you say, everyone was in a few places – our Out Bush, then everyone moved to the city and it got harder and harder to find people, and the choices got greater.

Not in the sense you wrote it; I did, but in the sense that you publish it, or edit it, or delete it. What is needed, and I think or at least hope, will evolve over time is a way for commenters to own their comments, in the same way as bloggers own their blogs, and for IM and Twitterer's, Face Bookers, friend feeders and so on to own their messages and content. Some sort of standard in the cloud that allows or expects all this social networking to actually be networked, rather than locked away in isolated valuts. Not just a site aggregater either, but some sort of automatic ping back, as widely accepted as HTML is today. Until then, it will be one mad rush from fashion to fashion, with old timers dropping off or remaining stuck with one technology. And, if it does stay this way, you will be able to tell when some one discovered social networking on the web in 2008. They will still be using twitter. It will probably be just me twittering away by myself (as I some times feel I do anyway). http://twitter.com/davidlmorris You own this comment.
