Hi Alex, thanks for your time. It’s the ‘10 uses’ bit that I wasn’t clear about. Is it 10 specific functions such as photo uploads or votes? Or is it really just any 10 actions sent from a mobile phone?
Is the service completely free for users accessing it through the web?

On the mobile phone: 99c/one use, $3.99/10 uses/month. As you are aware, the cell phone companies have a pay for everything model, so in order for me to provide this service on your mobile, I need to charge a small fee. Please let me know how I could clarify these terms.

Thanks for clarifying that. It does look like a cool service.

In your post, you mentioned that the F8 FaceDouble app had been installed by 500 users. Could you tell us the approximate time when you quoted that? Around midnight, it was at 716 users, so I’m trying to sketch out an adoption curve for the day.

Also, could you explain what the monthly subscription includes? I honestly couldn’t tell by reading the site.

Thanks,
Dan

Just to clarify regarding the affiliate links - Alex is a friend of mine and I’m pointing to his site as well as running banner ads for facedouble just because he’s a friend and I like the service. There’s no commercial relationship or money changing hands, it’s just a nice service I’d like to see succeed.
