Well it’s out there–Google is buying short messaging service Jaiku.  I’ve been a fan of Jaiku, and I guess it’s a sign of Google’s telecom ambitions that they are acquiring this rather cool service.

I’m using Twitter more and more to aggregate my content, but I think the RSS/atom feed inflow is a very cool enhancer that Jaiku offers and Twitter doesn’t yet natively.

This could change if Google adds lots of cool enhancments to Jaiku, but for now I’m on Twitter more.  Here’s my “river” page that takes in all my tweets; here‘s my commensurate page on Twitter.  You can see my Jaiku page here.

It’s worth speculating about who if anyone will buy Twitter now, although this may decrease the likelihood of them being acquired by Google as some people had predicted.
