Spotbros vs Whatsapp. Gaining popularity quickly. ¿Will win the battle to Whatsapp?
Spotbros, a program similar to Whatsapp but with privacy respect and some improvements (Spots, Shouts and SBmails) is gaining popularity very quickly, specially in Spain. ¿Will gain the battle to Whatsapp? Hope yes, but when we have a version for Maemo. I told them by Twitter that Maemo community could help or even develop from nothing a Maemo version, hoping to get help from them, but they don't answer... :(
Did you know it? What's your opinion about it? |

Well, tell me, why ebuddy xms or the other 12 or more similar apps are a better option?
If you tell me about gtalk or something that uses and open standard protocol, ok, it's a great advantage to have compatibility with every device in the world and you have multiple clients to choose, but it's not the case of ebuddy xms and it seems that it won't gain the battle to whatsapp. |

Also, whatsapp has shown the industry that Instant Messaging can be rather profitable and there will be many other companies wanting to take a share of this "New" field of communication. So it would not really be a productive use of the communities resources to start development for every wanna be contender that comes along now. /My$0.02 |

really Malkavian, do you think that besides all the info over the internet and to which many of your contacts may be using with their mobile phones: bank access online (you may probably use), facebook accounts, on line access to social security info, instant messaging services, movil acess services online (provided by your company), twitter, instagram, etc... anyone will bother to get your whatsapp contacts list to spam them? I'm still amazed by your concerns with instant messaging, anyways, if you think a new messaging company will provide support to maemo, all I can say is: good luck!!

I don't think that it's going to be popular arround the world.It depends on the country i think.For example in Turkey , there are a lot of people using WLM (still ...)

@MINKIN2 You are right. I was too enthusiastic assuming some developer here would like to have that app for Maemo and develop something about it. @Dazsa Yes and will be more and more: https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=whatsapp+spam Whatsapp security and privacy policy sucks. Even facebook have better privacy policy and security. |
