We recently got reviewed by killerstartups -> http://www.killerstartups.com/Comm/emote-in-microblog-the-way-your-are-feeling We have introduced "emotion selector" and "yaho messenger smiley support". These features are unique to emote and help users to express themselves better by attaching an emotion to every notice. Also, please have a look at the HORIZONTAL scrolling timeline added on user profile page (eg www.emote.in/gaurav ) . This will act as a on-line journal and lets a user go back in time whenever he/she feels like reminiscing about their past. Only emote has this kind of vertical + horizontal notice display. Along with this, we have also pulled up an informative index page too. We will continuously keep adding relevant stuff to emote timely. Please have a look at emote now.. It took time as we are only 2 guys and working on emote part time ;) I re-invite u to have a look at www.emote.in again. Regards, Gaurav Hi @andy c @stubbornmule , I appreciate ur comments on emote.

So far you've got a microblogging site built on status.net (formerly known as laconica) and that's about it. To offer something compelling you need either (i) a vibrant community that people will be drawn to, which takes a long time and twitter already has critical mass there and you'd also be a long way behind identi.ca or (ii) some unique and very attractive functionality. You say emote.in already has much more than twitter, but I can't see anything that would tempt existing twitter users over. Gaurav: I’d have to say, I agree with Andy.

Lovely work but hardly ‘bringing a new concept to microblogging’.

I hereby post a Review-Request for www.emote.in, A microblogging service; which is a platform to - 1. Make yourself heard, comment on news, stories and current affair. 2. Share your experiences, memories and events with your friends and family. 3. Connect with different people with similar emotional attributes as yours. (eg: if atrocities on animals make you sad, connect with others who share the same feeling) 4. Jot-down your experiences. You usually have so many things to say - a constant stream of thoughts, comments and observations running through your head continuously. 5. Last but not the least, has everything (and much more) that twitter has. 6. A wonderful timeline coming shortly (in few weeks) twitter and others are no doubt nice, but I always wanted to bring in a concept to microblogging !
