Which is better for business – Twitter or status.net

This morning I heard that Identi.ca has changed its name to status.net

Which is better for business?

While no-one can deny the success of twitter, one of the significant edges twitter had was its added value from a SEO point of view. Unfortunatly now all tweets have the nofollow tag active, so while twitter is a great communication channel it has lost its edge. In comes Identi.ca or now status.net

Offering the same great micro-blogging service (at the moment) all links are follow links, so added value to business users. At the moment I push all my tweets to identica, however I am keeping an eye on this open source solution and hoping that it will infact be a better platform in the longer term.

To help future-proof yourself have you got an identica user name yet?
