  1. @archaeme @takecherryakenji @why @dokidoki @roka It was done as a publicity stunt. It made sense from a marketing point of view - to launch the new software with a big ceremony, on a platform that already had an established userbase so thousands would get to try it and conversation would be abundant. However the mistake there was to suddenly (regardless of whether it was ready or not) move the floor beneath the feet of a huge network mostly composed of tech-oriented people, who tend to be picky with their software and like the stuff they're already using. Of course the result was that identi.ca was maimed, many people left and it never recovered.
