Personally, up until today, I didn’t do much of either. I tried Twitter last month during SXSW and it was so slow I sort of gave up. My brother pointed me in the direction of Jaiku the very same day and I was way more impressed. The problem was that everyone was on Twitter and I felt all alone on Jaiku. That is until Leo Laporte let the cat out of the bag. This morning I made a screencast of Jaiku and of Twitter and what I decided is that I like the UI of Jaiku better and that you can add feeds from your blog. I noticed that Jaiku was having the exact same problem Twitter was having during SXSW and today Twitter was more pleasant to deal with than Jaiku. I’m going to have to wait a few weeks to make up my mind. In the mean time, here are my screencasts of Jaiku and Twitter.

Note: I wasn’t sure how to pronounce Jaiku so I apologize in advance if I guessed wrong
