By the way @god is in charge of the beta invites. So, you better follow God. Also MC Hammer is standing with me right now. He has a few invites to hand out soon too. @mchammer (say hi).
- Robert Scoble
Oy. As long as the addiction starts in mid-Feb, I'm game.
- Tamar Weinberg
Is it bigger than a breadbox? Bigger than a Subaru?
- Rob Schieber
Mike: @god said I would go to hell if I broke embargo. He also said that he new @techcrunch couldn't handle the temptation.
- Robert Scoble
I'm not religious, but I grew up in a Baptist household and am still hung up enough that I can't follow @god.
- MiniMage
Don't tease us Scoble. Spill the beans! :)

When is the video coming so we can all check it? can you tell who ever it is to make sure it works nice with Twitter and that they put together a few videos on 'how to' use it so we can pick it up without thinking. (OK, maybe i'm being pushy)
- frank barry
Robert, please be so kind to notify us (or at least point it out) when it does become public. I would like to see if it lives up to what you say it is.
- Michael Forian
So do you really think it will be an improvement upon friendfeed? or just different?
- lucinda
Not fair Robert! This is what leads to an "unfollowing" ;) Gemini's do not deal well with suspense!
- Glen Meyburgh
Quick ... does anyone know any reverse psychology?
- Richard Filing
Well, if you move to it, I'll have to start tracking it, damn, one more service.
- Alex Wilhelm
Michael: yeah, of course I'll let you know when it's out. Chris, no, this one didn't make me cry. I feel more like a crack addict who just got shown a new drug. I can't resist.
- Robert Scoble
The gist? I don't want to anger @god -- he might not let me onto the beta. So far there are 50 people on it, and the addiction scales are off the charts.
- Robert Scoble
Robert: Nothing wrong with tech crack :) Looking forward to hearing what it is.
- Chris Johnson
Is that even possible, Scoble? How much room do you have for addictions?
- Logan Leger
Per MForian, maybe create a hashtag for this one so we know when it's real and can peg it back to this post. There's an old riddle: "how do you keep a moron in suspence for 24-hours?" answer: "tell you tomorrow."

Don't tell me its about World Wide Telescope again. After your hype (you said you were in tears), eventually it turned out to be a duh moment for me. http://scobleizer.com/2008...
- Puneet Thapliyal
Puneet: no, this is far more real-time-web and addicting than anything Microsoft could do.
- Robert Scoble
damn Robert! NOW am really intrigued. Pray tell..
- Asfaq
Mitch: you have no idea how close you are. Mona will be one of the first addicts. So will Louis. My brother will probably call it lame.
- Robert Scoble
..what everyone wants to know is...did it make you cry? haha...
- Lee Hsieh
Sounds like a cult - just curious - is this the same guy Loren talked to?
- Jesse Stay
So it's addictive, doesn't replace twitter nor friendfeed, is it another social status publishing platform?
- Rida Al Barazi
Jesse: @god says that @1938media is not trustworthy but I agree that this new thing could be a cult (hey, is friendfeed a cult?). Rida: um, no.
- Robert Scoble
It's it just more addictive, or is it more useful as well? It's important to realize that there's a difference.
- Daniel Miessler
friendfeed is the begging to something very exciting and new. Real-time web.
- Steven (optionshiftk)
Daniel: hmmm, is Twitter or friendfeed useful? If you answer yes then you'll find this useful too.
- Robert Scoble
asfaq: IRC died a while ago(IM took over) The problem with IRC was it had a very simplistic and crude form of identity. Now way to track or follow. :)
- Steven (optionshiftk)
Will this help business or something that's fun only? How can I get on the list to get a beta invite? I can't imagine something being better than FriendFeed - is that really possible??
- Jannifer @wordsforliving
I think the line between fun and Business is shrinking. We already see this with corporations using twitter internally.
- Steven (optionshiftk)
Gerardo: no. Come on, be serious. Jannifer: does Twitter help business? Does friendfeed? Does facebook?
- Robert Scoble
Scoble's found the stealth startup that's finally perfected teledildonics and is getting a demo!?!?
