Silly identi.ca, you’re no match for our service foo 3 years ago

Awwww.  How cute.  Somebody thinks they can launch an “open” microblogging service.  Fat chance.  How can you compete with our rabid user base?!  Its impossible.  We beat our users senseless with outages, disabling features and general malaise and yet they still return day-after-day.  You have a lot to live up to my Canadian friends.

It appears this morning that they’re having some issues as identi.ca isn’t that any more.  Its pointing at hewitt.controlezvous.ca.  Now, we don’t know about you all, but we call that a bait-and-switch (and hewitt.controlezvous.ca just isn’t all that catchy TBH).

Our favorite part is the fact that they use OpenID.  C’mon.  Seriously?!  People actually use OpenID?!  That’s cute.  In a sad, hurt, puppy dog kind of a way.

So take that you lackeys to the North!  Running a microblogging service is hard.  Trying to defeat us is futile.  Being open is silly.

We don’t care what anybody thinks.  Mostly.
