IM is dead
I’ve had my share of “* is dead” (here, here, here, here, here. here and here) posts (I’ am a dead head, I guess) and I’ve agreed with Stowe Boyd on IM before, but his post today about IM being a commodity in the face of Twitter etc. really rings true.
We are on the cusp of a new level of online communication that is all about flow or “river of news” as Dave Winer coins it and it is becoming so ubiquitous that it will be a commodity.
Usenet for the web anyone?
That has some negative connotations, but this time the user is in charge, not the system, right?
