The Best Microblogs According to Ten Criteria.

The listing of the better microblogs at http://microblogs.ning.com starts with this statement:
“This list is a personal choice and based on three criteria: ease of operability, quality of service and experienced functional up-time.”

Nice, we all want this. But the question remains: what makes up a really good microblog ?

For me it are these ten requirements:

1* login with username
2* immediately ready for posting after login
3* 140 characters mininum
4* no title needed
5* standard sending to all people
6* no extra tagging needed
7* respecting commas in urls
8* shortening urls
9* directly ready for reposting
10* presenting your previous postings

This list of requirements is ofcourse strictly personal, but I wanted to be able to discuss about quality so I had to substantiate what I see to be necessary for quality.

These seven microblogs meet all these criteria:

http://twitter.com
http://smspr.ru
http://zuosa.com

http://gozub.com
http://blip.pl
http://feecle.jp

http://beemood.com

Do you know of any other microblog meeting these criteria, let me know it right away !
