I got an invitation to SpokeIn touch yesterday. This is "the open network for business people" What I didn't get was how it was any different then any other 'stay in touch' thing like Plaxo (which I don't use). In fact I am not going to use anything in this genre until they are using open standards that interoperate with other systems. Below the fold is the actual e-mail if you want to dive into it. And no I don't want to sprinkle the world with my hCards. Please consider building the equivalent using XRI/XDI. It also strikes me that one would need to trust the service one is sharing all this information with. I have no basis for trusting them right now - who has had a good experience with them?
