Is anyone here a regular user of Jaiku.com? Have you been able to promote your business through it, at an equal or higher level than Twitter? The only thing I really don't like about it is that there appears to be no way to include hyperlinks in your blurbs, making it practically worthless to me. I really like their AJAX-based widget, though.
I looked into them a few weeks back. They get, maybe, around 5,000 hits a day. If that. I asked myself: Why should I use them if that's all they can get for their own site?
Is it true that Google bought them out? I heard that they're going to attempt to overcome Twitter (now would be a good time, because Twitter is so slow that you can barely log in half the time).
