Firefly Shutting Down Today

I got an email from Gary Culliss, one of the founders of Firefly, the Twitter appliance that let you check-in at various places and post that info in your Twitter stream.

Apparently attention is being pulled away by the enormous noise in that space, like Foursquare and Facebook, new entrants like Ditto, and photosharing geolocational tools like Instagram.

Gary says he will be pursuing other mobile apps, and now I may go back to using Brightkite.

About me

Social anthropologist, clairvoyant, postfuturist.

My work is social tools and their impact on media, business, and society.

I am made greater by the sum of my connections, and so are my connections.
