Jaiku is a Finland Website which let users update their locations and activities over website. This is what we call ‘microblogging‘.
Jaiku provide similar service with Twitter, which useweb 2.0 technologies to let users update their details over website.
So, why Google buying Jaiku instead of buying Twitter? I am sure that Twitter is more ‘expansive’ than Jaiku. But, money should not be a problem for a company like Google, right?
According to the Jaiku main page, they are not receiving any new registration because they want to focus on innovation instead of scaling. Perhaps they will open the registration soon.
