cross platform bbm finally launches today

[nature boy]

or so they're saying. if you're interested, go to bbm.com from your phone browser (only android an ios) and enter your deets. there's a waiting list apparently. when you're up at bat, they'll send you a message so you can download and start chatting.
with me.
and ben.
and joe.
and sometimes dave.
but not jt.

go. do it. now.

[geForce]

There's no waiting list.
Send me your bbm codes.

[geForce]

Oh, there's no wait list to download it, but there's a wait list to use it. That's kinda dumb. That's kinda really dumb.

[nature boy]

seriously? you're on?
ask - me
ask - ben
ask - joe
ask - dave
ask - jai, if he's ever on it.

[nature boy]

yeah, that's what i thought.
i think they're doing this so they can "ease" in the users and not have the system crash.

[geForce]

So are they doing a waiting list because their servers are overloaded? That's not very awe inspiring. It's a glorified text app, so why can something like whatsapp do it but bbm can't?

[geForce]

Ohhh... you may not want to put those bbm codes up here. It's accessible to non-forum members.

[nature boy]

i think because bbm already crashed last month. maybe just precaution? no idea.

[nature boy]

we don't have to accept invites, but i'll edit it anyway then.

[Wetundies]

bbm trying whatever it can to stay afloat.

[dezliew]

I use whatsapp to text few people in Vancouver.
why can't you just use whatsapp Nat?!?!?! LOL

[Wetundies]

cuz whatsapp costs money.

[geForce]

Whatsapp is free for me.

[jeSteR]

Because the whatsapp servers are nowhere near as secure as the BB servers. Now I know that JT wouldn't want his pecker pictures out on a "secure" server in Slovakia somewhere

[geForce]

Meh, I don't really need security for chatting. Now JT, on the other hand, seems to value his privacy. Have you ever seen him slap Dave's hand when he tries to grab JT's phone? lol
