Keep us posted on your project! @JordanR I really like the way Gwibber does it: everything in one “stream,” sorted chronologically, with duplicate posts hidden. Keep us posted on your project!

The idea of 140characters x 2000 of my updates being trapped on their servers freaks me out. But none of my 'real life' friends have any idea what Identi.ca is--it'd be hard to get them to switch. Gwibber is the best I've been able to do so far--if you find something better (particularly something that works on Windows so I could use it during the day at work), I'd love to hear about it.

I've been trying to flesh out a client that's cross platform for myself for a little bit. How would you like the feeds aggregated?
