Let’s please not put this in the same category as Truemors :)

This actually looks useful. Twitter-who?

And like Stan and Pete, I wanted to hate it.

Yeah, and I’ve read Ryan Stewart’s and Allen Stern’s as well. All generally positive.

Looks like they’re trying to make a better mousetrap, rather than trying to re-invent the mousetrap. Sounds like the 37signals route, actually.

Well, as I say … until I get my grubby paws on it, it’ll be hard for *me* to know. ;)

Read my full review on Mash (not the initial preview, the new one). You might be surprised. Pownce is actually really good, and I for one am dumping Twitter as soon as this thing is out of invite-only beta.
