The only service I see close to what he's imagining is status.net, check the video, it is almost exactly what he is talking about.
As a heavy user of twitter, I really don't see microblogging as a much needed service that needs to be decentralized. I just want the latest news and links from the web designers and programmers that I follow. #newtwitter seems like it would make the user experience more enjoyable for someone who has leaned on to that standard type of use of twitter.
I also don't worry for developers, as long as twitter doesn't keep track of my unread posts or lets me filter my feed, they have a niche.
