Microblogs do exist in English, Chinese, Spanish, Russian, French, Korean, Portuguese,
Japanese, German, Turkish, Polish and Dutch. (see http://microblogs.ning.com )
A new fase of microblogging did arrise more recently: specialised and adapted to one of the
many possible usages of the concept.
emotions/feelings

Expressing what you feel and why you feel so was the earliest of the fonctions that did get
special attention and an own form to do so.
statements
Stating your opinion, bringing the arguments you see and getting feedback from people who
care to do so by voting and/or answering to your statement.
help
Crying out for help and findable people willing to listen and maybe able of doing something
for you. Giving advice, support or even aid.
topics
Getting online together and sharing tips, advice, links, thoughts, knowledge and wisdom on a
specific topic in a simple way.
I suppose that microblogs specialized in posting urls will be findable quite soon.
del.icio.us , digg.com and reddit.com might be in danger...
