So, subscribe to your Twitter page's RSS feed and post it to Identi.ca and it all works. Well done Twitterfeed. I’m now using Twitterfeed for this, because it can now post to Identi.ca.

As far as I can see it, laconica is a way out of being locked into a single microblogging service ever again, not a way to be locked into a smaller service on the server of someone you might know. If you're only federating with your contacts then your requirements scale up with the size of your personal network, which seems reasonable to me, and should happily deal with a grouping of around Dunbar-proportions. I certainly won't be signing up on identi.ca, although in a few months' time (when federation works as advertised) I will probably set up my own laconica install. I'm not daft enough to move off twitter just for lock-in somewhere else. They might be more interesting, but surely that’s not the point?

The people having their own server are far more interesting - and they should be able to setup a xmpp server.

This is important.
