Rob:
So, my company has started up Ditter. Basically, you sign up for an
account.
Then, any time at all, it's just a single click, or the shortest of SMS messsages, or email, or anything else, and you post "What he said." That
says
it all, right? It's appropriate for pretty much any occasion or
situation.
It's short. And it doesn't require a lot of thought.
I probably shouldn't say this, but that could actually be very useful. :) A service that made it possible to easily vote up (or down?) any given thing, and ideally be able to see the votes of various subsets of people (one's friends / followees / contacts / oh wait I know, one's "dittos"; people who have voted up lots of things that you have also voted up; dittos of one's dittos; etc; etc), and see, like, the top-voted whatevers in the last six hours, and get the corresponding RSS/ATOM feeds, and other obvious features, really could be the Next Hot Thing. I'm really glad I didn't think of this, 'cause if I had I would have been tempted to file a patent application. :) I'm sure there have been vaguely-similar things done, but they probably weren't sufficiently Web 3.0 / cute / misspelled to go viral. DC P.S. Have we all seen Omegle? :)
