Open Media Review

Identi.ca Account

Mike Linksvayer, from the Creative Commons, commented when I set up the site’s Twitter stream that an Identi.ca account would be more appropriate given the site’s focus. I retorted that it would only be useful if there was a nice WordPress plugin, like TwitterTools, to automate updating Identi.ca automatically.

I was just about to roll my sleeves up and see if I could hack an existing plugin to provide this functionality when a quick search revealed someone beat me to it for which I am hugely grateful.

So now you have your choice of micro-blogging services for getting near real time update of when new posts go up. As Mike pointed out, Identi.ca is dedicate to the same freedoms that are at the core of open media so I encourage you to consider it if you haven’t already.
