Dennis Howlett presents StatusHQ, another Twitter clone focusing, this time, the Enterprise. With a number a differences as compared to the original most famous Twitter:

• - it offers authenticated RSS
• - it removes the 140 character limit, instead it imposes a limit of 255 characters
• - individuals can create up to 10 private groups on their own account but can be invited to any number of groups
• - while Twitter asks:What are you doing, StatusHQ asks two questions: What are you doing? and Where are you?
• - you can update via SMS
• - the service allows you to delete messages

Let’s wait and see what companies pick up the microblogging trend first!
