Blooie - Intelligent Conversation Platform (opens in new tab)

I signed up with Twitter and still couldn't figure out what it did. Clicking a "chat" button gave me a traceback.

there is a tour that is designed for website owners available here: https://bloo.ie/tour . We have plans to create a more user centric tour soon.

We're looking into it. Right now it seems to help by logging out (link in top right). Let me know how you get on

Same error here too. It's unfortunate that this made it to HN before it was fully tested.

Thanks for the feedback. We completely understand your concerns and thats why we bring up the privacy point in the video. The point you miss is that we dont want to connect you to the people you know. Why? because you already know these people. We want to connect you to new and interesting people that like to talk anbout the same things you do. Hence "email, IRC, lists, usenet, forums, IM etc." aren't sufficient. Mainly because they focus on people that you know and also because (when talking to people you dont know) you arent having a conversation you are reading posts. We are not out to steal your data (says the faceless founder).We analyse the conversations so we can build a profile about the content you enjoy and what you like to talk about. We then use this data to provide you with new content and connect you to people you would like to chat to. None of you chat logs are saved and all of the data we pull from the conversations is anonymised against your account name. We do offer data back to the content provider but this is done by demographics and is never pinned to specific users.

thats been fixed now, cheers for the feedback

One of the founders here... As far as i am aware you have to have a registered Irish company to avail of the .ie domain name. Thats how we got it.
