I was interested in getting feedback from current mail group users. We have mirrored your mail list in a new application that provides a more aggregated and safe environment which utilizes the power of broadband.
"Utilizes the power of broadband"? What a heap of marketing wankspeak!
Roomity.com v 1.5 is a web 2.01 community webapp. Our newest version adds broadcast video and social networking such as favorite authors and an html editor. It?s free to join and any feedback would be appreciated. S.

As if the app is in someway related to the kind of cable that carries the traffic. Sorry, no way on earth am I gonna run your wretched java virus/trojan just in order to get the opportunity to have marketing bullshit rammed down my throat. It's utter GARBAGE to claim that installing some completely unknown java application is somehow a "safe environment" compared to reading plain text emails. cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
