Chatterous works better than Twitter on mobile
jolieodell.wordpress.com"And Chatterous will get me laid."
Yes, because if there's one thing skinny, young blondes need help with, it's that.
Maybe you can help me out here, but how is she a geek?
She says she is, because in any other community she's just a normal looking chick. Claiming geek gives you +3 on the 10 scale. See iJustine for reference.
Um, I'm a geek because I live on the Internet and make a living FROM the Internet. It started with DOS and King's Quest when I was a little kid... Does using a Linux machine in '99 give me any geek points? Oh, please, can I be a geek now? *rolls eyes
Wow, King's Quest? Cred granted.
Dog wrestler? Cred accepted.
How did you know what I was doing? The dog won.
Oh shit! I Googled you! OMG! Now what? Apparently, you make a habit of being an taint cheese on the Internet.
I better do some serious vanity Google repair if I come up as a dog wrestler. I used to come up mainly as an author, but if my royalty check is any indication that probably isn't the case any more.
I wouldn't call it a habit. It's just a sample bias. Good phrase though.
Thanks. It's an original. And your dog wrestling is in your About page on your blog.
Let me know if you need SEO help for your personal brand. Hah. Haha!
Ok, I'm kidding. Sorry. Have a bitchin' day.
To everyone who's being fair and relevant in their comments about the post, thanks! To those who are being nice, thanks very much! You're awesome. To those of you who are making insulting and irrelevant personal remarks, please take this to heart: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WaouomhdQi8
Heh. It's not exactly hard to beat Twitter on technical merit. Arguably Pownce is better there (certainly in features) and Jaiku seemed to have more stable tech.
Twitter keeps winning because it has a lot of people and has got a lot of nice desktop clients. Inertia and off-browser integration mean a lot to a service like twitter.
Kind of a moot point now, but I always wonder if Pownce would have gained much more traction had it launched with a full API instead of/in addition to a mediocre AIR client.
Oh, and we were chatting with iJustine last night and this morning.
Skinny, young blondes FTW!!!
Hellooo! It's Jolie.
Actually, the chat groups in Chatterous are AWESOME for meeting new ppl. Smart, successful people. People who can talk intelligently about Ruby on Rails. Or monetizing social media. Or measuring virals.
Srsly. It's hot.
You are very adorable. Just making an observation.
Dude, just stay away from girls that are into social media. Let's just say they give a different perspective on viral networks...
Oh, snap! That was so funny!
Don't you have some GuildWars or something to play?
Can't resist the blonde geeky types.
Do people say things like "srsly u shd try ruby on rails sumtime. ttttyl8ter" ? ;-)
Yeah. Certainly. Of course. You're fucking brilliant. Oh my god. I just collapsed a lung, I was laughing so hard.
One issue I see is what if you want to find new friends. What if you want to find interesting people in chatrooms.
Seems fine if you have a group of friends and want to chat together.
we're working on that ;)
Is it just me, or is http://www.chatterous.com/ broken in FF3?
Works perfectly for me.
layout is messed in FF2+Ubuntu
I just joined chatterous and can't find the getting laid feature anywhere.
Nice one guys - heres to chatterous becoming the breakout app of 2008!
like twitter, chatterous could use some accelerating growth. You need accelerating growth for social platforms
Or you can just cheat by leveraging off existing networks ;)
helloTxt.com is useful.
How about a dating service that is.. well.. twitterlike. Just launched, so there's not much there yet. http://www.TalkAboutADate.com. Can't promise it'll get you laid. Anyone know of an api that'll help you do that? :)
