Hundreds of new users flocked to Rejaw tonight, after “Tech God” Leo Laporte tweeted about the service. Rejaw is another contender in a vast sea of microblogging platforms aimed at taking the crown from the troubled king, Twitter. Just last week Twitter threw in the towel for SMS messages in Europe.

With the sudden influx of users, the admins at Rejaw are bracing for another round of heavy activity tomorrow as the east coast comes online and big name blogs are sure to cover them.

Avatar X: Danny: better hurry up Dave Winer just had a look. there should be no time for scoble to get here. that means techcrunch, valleywag. etc. :P

Danny Burkes: I’m fine with all of that, except if Valleywag finds out about my secret brother

Rejaw seems to be surviving the onslaught better than Plurk did and hopefully they can avoid a repeat of Identi.ca’s troubled launch. I’d suggest getting on there and giving it a try, if you do add me as a friend :)
