app.net

Anyone heard of app.net? New paid, ad-free (for now) rival to Twitter. Details here:

Global feed of alpha version here:

So, what do you all think? Does it have legs, or is it doomed to be an elitist walled garden? Should confess here that I've already joined to see what it's about. Seems interesting so far.

Came across this also. The problem i'd imagine them having is getting mass adoption of a paid for service when its hard enough to get people to use most services for free.
