Our main -goal is to provide a fair and transparent service that preserves users' autonomy. In -particular, all the software used for %%site.name%% is [Free Software](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_Software), and all the data is available -under the [%%license.title%%](%%license.url%%) license, making it Open Data. - -The software also implements the [OpenMicroBlogging](http://openmicroblogging.org/) protocol, meaning that you can have friends on other microblogging services -that can receive your notices. - -The goal here is *autonomy* -- you deserve the right to manage your own on-line -presence. If you don't like how %%site.name%% works, you can take your data and the source code and set up your own server (or move your account to another one). - -Where is feature X? -------------------- - -The software we run, [Laconica](http://laconi.ca/), is still in its early stages, -and many features people expect from microblogging sites are not yet implemented. Some important ones that are expected "soon": - -* More [AJAX](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AJAX)-y interface -* Maps -* Cross-post to Pownce, Jaiku, etc. -* Pull messages from Twitter, Pownce, Jaiku, etc. -* [Facebook](http://www.facebook.com/) integration -* Image, video, audio notices - -There is [a list of bugs and features](http://laconi.ca/trac/) that you may find -interesting. New ideas or complaints are very welcome. - - |
