What makes Jaiku so good...

So during the recent downtime, that saw Jaiku move from a datacenter in Finland to the Google App Engine, i tried out Rejaw.

While there, there was a conversation, and the feature list of Jaiku came out.

Thinking about it, here are the features (in an approximate priority order), that keep me coming back to Jaiku (appart from the people);

• Mobile client
  
• threaded replies (with no character limit on replies, only on initial post)
• Channels
• does the Lifestreaming feed thing
• Post via SMS
• IM interface
• API
