“Wonderful Jaiku users,
Exciting news, Jaiku is joining Google!
While its too soon to comment on specific plans, we look forward to working with our new friends at Google over the coming months to expand in ways we hope you’ll find interesting and useful. Our engineers are excited to be working together and enthusiastic developers lead to great innovation. We look forward to accomplishing great things together.
In order to focus on innovation instead of scaling, we have decided to close new user sign-ups for now. But fear not! All our Jaiku services will stay running the way you are used to and you will continue to be able to invite your friends to Jaiku.
We have put together a quick Q&A about the acquisition at http://jaiku.com/help/google
Jyri Engestrom and Petteri Koponen, Jaiku Founders”
I wonder if the boys at Twitter will be pissed off it wasn’t them that was bought, or happy they didn’t fall into the clutches of the do-no-evil empire
