Thought that the website would replace this group so it would be a
place for people to post questions and answers.

No lurkers! It is expected that you introduce yourself:

Thanks for the feature discussion Tyrone.
Can you explain what you would get out of a forum? How would that be
different than this mailing list? (there is already a web-interface
with threading support for this)
Also, what types of things would you do with a wiki?
To help jump start other ideas
Ning is simple, will put faces to text and can be established quickly.
Could be a good solution whilst you build out something specific?

If you're doing it as an exercise in Drupal, perhaps as a learning
project for a bigger one, then fine.
Ning would be fantastic for this unless there's already functionality
that has been discussed offline.
Anyway, if you are going to build it then I would look for a forum, a
wiki and a Twi
BuddyPress? or a tailored WordPress? Surely there are enough plugins to do
what you want.
Actually what do you want!?

I will likely be building something custom based on Drupal, but I'd
like to hear more about specific features and ideas you'd like to have
rather than particular services/technologies to use.
I.e. If you're thinking about a social network on Ning, what type of
features would you want out of it? W

Its been about a year since the website was started and we still
haven't done anything with it. There were previous plans to build up a
site at one of the startup camps, but it got overruled with another
idea so there it sits. (w00t, ActivityHorizon!)

Hi Samuel,
I know you said up-front that your email was going to be a rant, but I
think you need to take a deep breath and consider for a moment that
not everyone thinks your ideas are as valuable as you do. Ideas are a

From what i can gather, the firehose and all their other outputs are
UTF-8.
... You just have no way to search by the unicode or other symbols. So
twitter search in language using chars other than the standard ascii
alphanumerics, is useless...
Somehow this feels like it deserves a :-( lol

My (very uninformed) guess: they support Unicode in the sending, saving and
reading point, but the escape out of it in the search components, possibly
because the search stuff is from a company they acquired.
I wonder if the firehose provides the content in Unicode?

Interesting but it didnt take long to notice they have the same
limitations i wanted to work around as well.
you cant search for something like '25%', you just get results for '25'
which is a major limitation really.
Why on earth twitter bothered supporting unicode i have no idea. You
