Headlines: where now on App.net
We have jumped onto the App.net bandwagon.
Giving users yet another way to follow and interact.
For those that haven't heard of App.net it's a Twitter like service with out the adverting. There still in alpha so it's understandable if you haven't heard much of them yet. There business model is different from twitter as the users are the clients not the advertisers, in this type of model clients are charged a small fee for the service but because of that there is no advertisements and reduces the amount of posted spam. So far my experience is very positive.
