Sorry Reggie! I saw a tweet from Nik Nik about it and just assumed it was her article. My bad! Hey, I can't argue with free either! To be honest, I haven't run this through a full evaluation so I shouldn't poo poo it too much. :-) However I found the interface sleek-looking, but hard to use. Why are there no back buttons? Why can't you cancel out of pop up dialogs? Some pages clicking on their logo will take you back to the home page, on others nothing! Not even a simple "log in" link on their main page! These are sort of basic interface things that tell me it needs some polishing, that's all. And if they want to hit me up for a Pro version, they should do it after I've tried it a bit and see value, not in my face everywhere when I first sign up. You have to go all the way to the PayPal page before you can even see the $179 a year price they want to charge. (about ten times the value, IMO) But tie-ins with Facebook and Twitter <--- THAT'S cool! Opps! Sorry Reggie! I saw a tweet from Nik Nik about it and just assumed it was her article. My bad!

I'm very impressed with the app. I did see a few opportunities TinyChat took to remind me about their professional version, but I don't mind since the basic version is free...I can't complain about that.

It's still missing basic website user interface functions and constantly asking you to pay for their WAY overpriced Pro version. They want $14.95 a MONTH. I might be willing to pay $20 a YEAR for, if it worked better. But the idea is good and they are trying to integrate lots of features and social media sharing, which is cool.
