App.net’s New Direction ⇥ marco.org

Marco Arment takes issue with today’s announcement from Dalton Caldwell:

They seem to want developers to start using App.net as a primary storage and communication platform. When they launched, this was something cool developers could do. Now, it seems like this is what developers should do, and this is how we’re supposed to view App.net.

As a developer, I don’t think I’d go anywhere near that type of integration.
