Pownce, the newer, more advanced Twitter
May 25, 2008 by Bee
Pownce: described as a mash between Twitter, chat, file sharing and an improved version of social networking (i.e. tagging friends in certain groups rather than one big room). It’s gaining attention due to the founder, Kevin Rose, also having founded Digg.
Pownce: Against All Odds, Pownce Blew Us Away
on Pownce, you can send a message, or a file, or a song, or an event, to one person; or three of your friends; or only your family; or everyone. That’s right, you can engage in private conversations, you can speak to the world, you can have a group of close friends, and a group of associates, and a group of unknown people you just added to your profile, and you can choose when you want to send stuff to any of these groups. With this simple feature Pownce trounces all over Twitter, and comes close to being more useful than most IM clients.As far as other options go, Pownce has themes, which are nice for simple pimping of your profile; it also has solid filtering options for your messages, which makes your life much easier (try to find that link someone sent you 6 days ago on Twitter).
Maybe, I’ll see you Pownce soon?
