OK, so can someone tell me what What'sApp IS? .... and why they're worth 19 billion dollars? You guys must have heard the news by now......? | |

What'sApp is worth that much because it costs crazy money to text people on your phone. What'sApp lets you do it practically for free. I use it a lot. | |

Yeah, I'm finding that even texting some people with iPhones costs me money, but then it's free for others. I don't know why, but I'm asking more people to use whatsapp these days My Legacy

Can you explain to me HOW you send the pics? How is it different from MMS? Do you take the picture inside the app?
I've never used any of these things myself, I hate cellphones in general, and don't use them unless I'm forced to.
To receive the messages, you have to have WhatsApp installed on your phone right? It seems to me that this is just like ICQ, from such a long time ago..... can any of the geeky types here tell me if there's a difference?

If u have access to the internet, via wifi, 3G or 4g, it's free, including sending pictures; however, you are using your data allowance in your phone or you are abroad it might incur some charges. I use it all the time to talk to my family and friends in Spain, it's brilliant! | |

Yes, if you use it when travelling, do it when you have free wifi I'm the mistake you wanna make | |

It does? How much? Here in NZ most people have unlimited texting when they sign onto a monthly mobile phone plan. I guess that's why I can't understand the appeal of this... Music, sweet music, I wish I could caress and...kiss, kiss... | |

I use it every day instead of texting via my iPhone plan. You can even send little audio messages on it now. | |

Yes, and this is EXTREMELY worrying. I'm surprised noone discusses this aspect of the thing. And, rejects this service because of it.

It's basically like an email service with the layout of short messaging. That's why you need internet access to use it. | |

Me too! Every time I upgrade my phone they "accidentally" revert me to a different plan but I call them and they reinstate my old one. Whew. |

Ex-Moderator | I use whatsapp for texting internationally mainly. |

I beg to differ, it IS, indeed, wrong. Very, VERY wrong. They have all the messages you've been sending your friends, stuff which you thought was for them to listen to, all along. Some random person knowing that is a HUGE privacy violation.
When I first heard about Facebook, that was the 1st thing that ran through my mind - Zuckerberg doesn't give a shit about whether you make friends on it or not, he's just trying to get at your data so he can target ads to you and make money. This reason should make EVERY SINGLE PERSON GET OFF OF FACEBOOK IMMEDIATELY! He's learnt to talk the biz lingo - you know, "ROI" and what not - other important sounding acronyms. I still can't believe so many people use it, as far as I'm concerned, I still haven't figured out what exactly it is, and how to use it. And also, of course, how so many people fell for the con. It really is, the most senseless thing I've ever heard of. Every orger who's reading this should just STOP!
And, Gmail and so forth are the same thing.

Btw, I don't think it was all cash though - AFAIK, I think I heard some TV presenter talk about stock.
