Even if people are hearing their friends talk badly about Twitter's constant downtimes, it still may spark their interest enough to create an account. Also, I think it's still fairly safe to say that Twitter is the only microblogging site that has really caught on outside of the early adopters/tech-inclined group. Out of my "real life" friends, none are on FriendFeed, Plurk or Identi.ca. And last, but certainly not least, any site whose "our site has crapped out" graphic becomes a celebrity is certainly not going anywhere. Long live the Fail Whale!

This is one of the things that Disqus is trying to do, I think, and it always seems to come back to data portability.
