Unlike twitter, the identi.ca code base is released under the AGPLv3, through the status.net project. Anyone is free to setup their own instance of status.net and can even federate with other instances, using the Open Micro Blogging standard. Another feature which identi.ca/status.net has over twitter is support for groups, so someone can send a message to a group of people, a bit like how a mailing list works.
