I tried following on Jaiku but it was just a little to many conversations and content in the streams for me. On twitter its a conversation and a link. Easy !&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Good to see you back&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Nik ( Loudmouthman ) Butler&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Nicholas Butler</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 18 Nov 2007 12:00:02 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Top 10 Reasons Why I&amp;#8217;m Twittering Again</title><link>http://leoville.com/2007/11/12/1144/#comment-2618311</link><description>&lt;p&gt;i must be thick. i just don't get twitter.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Tim Gillin</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 18 Nov 2007 03:39:35 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Top 10 Reasons Why I&amp;#8217;m Twittering Again</title><link>http://leoville.com/2007/11/12/1144/#comment-2618323</link><description>&lt;p&gt;+1 for MoodBlast2 -- it's awesome. it's like an Adium/Pidgin for presence sites.

I am very glad to have you back on. Its funny how things that were important and tools change over time. Every tool has its own use and twitter is not going away. I still think pownce is cool and will get cooler once they get their API figured out. Until then I will play with them all :)&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Christian Burns</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 14 Nov 2007 01:10:06 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Top 10 Reasons Why I&amp;#8217;m Twittering Again</title><link>http://leoville.com/2007/11/12/1144/#comment-2618322</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Thats so funny that you're going back to twitter as I was only thinking about this the other day. I used to love the simple updates and being able to make new friends without a lot of effort. Now that you are back I think I will have to come back too.... HAHA!!! Here comes the twit army again!!!!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Keep up the good work&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Benno</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 13 Nov 2007 20:40:11 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Top 10 Reasons Why I&amp;#8217;m Twittering Again</title><link>http://leoville.com/2007/11/12/1144/#comment-2618313</link><description>&lt;p&gt;When you stopped, I stopped, now that your're on so am I Love what you do to help us Leo!  keep it up.

What happened there? Wasn't that the reason you pulled the ejection cord on twitter in the first place?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-confused&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">jambe</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 13 Nov 2007 08:42:06 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Top 10 Reasons Why I&amp;#8217;m Twittering Again</title><link>http://leoville.com/2007/11/12/1144/#comment-2618318</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Twitter?  I don't see it's point at all unless you're a celeb and want everyone to know when you take a shower etc...  Lately it's all micro blog overdose!  It's too much info about things most people don't want to or need to know.  I deleted pownce, jaiku and twitter as all it seemed to be was a lazy persons email and people always directing you to something on their blog or site.   I think the internet is missing it's point lately, instead of refining and enhancing communication it's dumbing it down.  I'm jumping off the bandwagon.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">d r e w</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 13 Nov 2007 08:40:24 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Top 10 Reasons Why I&amp;#8217;m Twittering Again</title><link>http://leoville.com/2007/11/12/1144/#comment-2618325</link><description>&lt;p&gt;So happy to see you back. :)  I've missed your tweets!&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">ijustine</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 13 Nov 2007 02:30:13 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Top 10 Reasons Why I&amp;#8217;m Twittering Again</title><link>http://leoville.com/2007/11/12/1144/#comment-2618316</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Not enough time in the day for me to even think about using twitter.
