From dodgeball you got brightkite, fire eagle and now giving a full circle forusquare.

However it was also half the inspiration for Twitter.

Twitter has generated several in line clone services around the world but the cut out clones have never actually catch on.

Twitter yet managed to inspire jaiku.

Jaiku has been one of the greatest innovators in social messaging and it comes from both the inspiration of twitter and dodgeball.

yet generated several line in line services like identi.ca/laconi.ca and of course Plurk that is now the biggest derivation out of jaiku and the most bold one.

Pownce inspiration came from dodgeball,twitter, jaiku and tumblr and leah and co managed to do something actually unique even if managed terribly.

The only derivations of pownce are Rejaw (now closing soon) and kwippy

Friendfeed grabs inspirations from all the mentioned players plus gmail and greader because of the creator pedigree and does its own thing. so far i have not seen a true derivation to friendfeed.

But the point is that these 5 services have been the great innovators and they are the reason for social messaging extremely fast evolution and cross pollination with Social Media and Social Networks.

Then i guess it is too complicated and wishful to try to serve all this information and it is best to put everything in the same box without actual context so carry on.
