I joined the bandwagon of Twitter fully aware that i would only collect a meager amount of friends on it, (since it seems fashionable around the geek arena now to jump into the same friend collecting activity as kids on myspace) but thought it was an interesting twist on Jaiku. It definitely feels like “myspace for grownups” as Matt put it, but i was a bit distracted by the fact that my name didn’t fit into the form and I got the above annoying message. I am of course the first to admit that my name is quite long (25 characters) but I have enough identity issues with using just Sonsino or Deschamps-Sonsino, id at least like to have the choice of what to use, and if I’m asked for my real name, well, to be able to type it in…
