Chatterous works better than Twitter on mobile
- rms 18y agolike twitter, chatterous could use some accelerating growth. You need accelerating growth for social platforms
- axod 18y agoOr you can just cheat by leveraging off existing networks ;)
- mattmaroon 18y ago"And Chatterous will get me laid." Yes, because if there's one thing skinny, young blondes need help with, it's that.
- omouse 18y agoMaybe you can help me out here, but how is she a geek?
- mattmaroon 18y agoShe 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.
- JolieODell 18y agoUm, 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
- mattmaroon 18y agoWow, King's Quest? Cred granted.
- JolieODell 18y agoDog wrestler? Cred accepted.
- mattmaroon 18y agoHow did you know what I was doing? The dog won.
- JolieODell 18y agoOh shit! I Googled you! OMG! Now what? Apparently, you make a habit of being an taint cheese on the Internet.
- mattmaroon 18y agoI 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.
- JolieODell 18y agoThanks. 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.
- JolieODell 18y agoTo 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 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WaouomhdQi8
- KirinDave 18y agoHeh. 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.
- rufo 18y agoKind 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.
- axod 18y agoOne 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.
- arasakik 18y agowe're working on that ;)
- neilc 18y agoIs it just me, or is http://www.chatterous.com/ http://www.chatterous.com/ broken in FF3?
- JolieODell 18y agoHellooo! 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.
- TrevorJ 18y agoDo people say things like "srsly u shd try ruby on rails sumtime. ttttyl8ter" ? ;-)
- JolieODell 18y agoYeah. Certainly. Of course. You're fucking brilliant. Oh my god. I just collapsed a lung, I was laughing so hard.
- jpeterson 18y agoYou are very adorable. Just making an observation.
- omouse 18y agoDude, just stay away from girls that are into social media. Let's just say they give a different perspective on viral networks...
- jpeterson 18y agoCan't resist the blonde geeky types.

- JolieODell 18y agoOh, snap! That was so funny! Don't you have some GuildWars or something to play?
- JolieODell 18y agoOh, and we were chatting with iJustine last night and this morning. Skinny, young blondes FTW!!!
- sharpshoot 18y agoNice one guys - heres to chatterous becoming the breakout app of 2008!
- menloparkbum 18y agoI just joined chatterous and can't find the getting laid feature anywhere.
- kashif 18y agohelloTxt.com is useful.
- talkaboutadate 18y agoHow about a dating service that is.. well.. twitterlike. Just launched, so there's not much there yet. http://www.TalkAboutADate.com http://www.TalkAboutADate.com. Can't promise it'll get you laid. Anyone know of an api that'll help you do that? :)
