I use Seesmic pretty much exclusively for video posts, though Phreadz has it at the moment in terms of flexibility ... channeling of conversations. 12Secs doesn't suit my posting style. Seesmic has been promising 'rooms' for a while to enable focus in conversation. Whilst it can be irritating sometimes, I quite like the way threads can ramble and even 'hijack' a topic. We're still exploring how the medium can be used ... it's a tool and shouldn't define us. The various communities will, in time, shape it to their various needs. PS Like you, I use Seesmic (as well as the slew of social networks I'm on) as pre-blogpost tools.
