Kudos on #9. I am also fed up with versioning the web. Let’s get out heads out of the cloud.
“May email turn to twitter – each mail cannot be longer than 140 characters (that’s including attachments)”
I agree with this wish, but not for the reason you list. In my opinion, the 140 char limit is the second-worst thing in Twitter today, while it’s best feature is that _you_ have the control over who you can receive messages from.
Thanks for the post. I actually was trying to get a 3.0 named website, but it seemed a bit contrived and hard to find a proper one.
“2. May email turn to twitter ”
Amen to this!!! Email needs a facelift.
I wish for delayed tweeting in TweetDeck. i.e. I can write tons of updates and have them all delayed for when I want them released. I know I can do it through TweetLater and other online services but I want that in my most used Twitter client which is TweetDeck.
I would also like to manage all of my Gmail accounts in one super aggregated account.
This has to be one of the best such compilations I have come across in quite some time. For at least half of your wish, I have a single, unique offering to introduce. It is my creation TipTop http://FeelTipTop.com which is already getting noticed. Before the end of the year, I expect TipTop to be one of the most sought-after services on the Internet.
