Status.Net: The WordPress For Microblogs Gets A Hosted Solution

Last year, we saw the launch of identi.ca, the open-sourced alternative to Twitter. At the time, we wrote that the company was never going to rival Twitter. As it turns out, that's not the goal of parent company StatusNet. Instead, the startup is looking to become something akin to a 'WordPress for microblogs'. That is to say, they make a platform that others can easily download and install to their own servers. And today they're showing off the next major step in their platform: a hosted solution for those who don't want to bother with managing their own install, which will be hosted on status.net. In effect, Status.Net is to the StatusNet platform as WordPress.com is to WordPress. Status.Net will offer a free package for very basic use, and will then offer a number of premium packages that give access to premium features. We first heard about the upcoming product last month when StatusNet raised $875,000, but until now they haven't introduced the platform to the public. ]]>
