I hear they are well funded. They sure brag a lot on the home page. I'll let you know when it's up. I would sign up now, and get in early. - Robert Scoble

Louis Gray, that means you. :-) - Robert Scoble

did you get your username? *lol*...via feedalizr - Dieter Schwarz

teh vaporware. - Brian Daniel Eisenberg

Brian: we'll see. The guy who sent me the tip on this is very credible. - Robert Scoble

If they brag that they're better then Twitter then why do they have an account on Twitter? - Timothy Neilen

I found their email response to be a bit over the top, but then again, stranger things have happened. - Brian Daniel Eisenberg

I'm already in, Robert. :-) "The tech is so revolutionary that we had to get special government permits to test it. Initial testing was done on a few select, not to be named, a-list tech bloggers. The response? Total and complete mind melding with the most important geeks in the world." - Louis Gray

hmm.. based on their logo, my hopes are not so high for this one. http://h-master.net/web2... - Orli Yakuel

They're like Twitter & FriendFeed Combined ... but so much better! Guess that pretty much seals Twitter & FF's fate. - Chris Baskind

the name sucks. Yeah im on this new site called ZobZee, no not zombie, zobzee. no not nazi, ZOBEZEE! - Tyler Gillies

What are they going to do, insert microchips into the brains of people who sign up for the service? - Timothy Neilen

The Web 2.0 logo generator logo inspires a lot of confidence. Their email is even better, they claim they are an "app that will kill both Twitter and FriendFeed overnight!" - Duncan Riley

They appear to have networked Scoble's digestive tract, according to the confirmation email. Deeply impressive technology. - Chris Baskind

I signed up earlier today...now waiting for what this is all about in their email to me today: "The tech is so revolutionary that we had to get special government permits to test it. Initial testing was done on a few select, not to be named, a-list tech bloggers. The response? Total and complete mind melding with the most important geeks in the world." What's all this about????? - Susan Beebe

the name is terrible as is the logo. My bet is this site won't be a winner - Michael McGimpsey

What? :) It's all what it takes to get such attention? :) - directeur

Here's another lovely quote from that same email, (Scoble you'll *love* this!) - "Imagine being able to know what Scoble is hungry for the moment he thinks it? He doesn't even have to type it... just think it, and you'll know." - Susan Beebe

Susan: but will it make me cry? - Robert Scoble

I'm already crying. - Louis Gray

They have a wet-floor reflection *and* a brightly colored starburst beta badge in their logo. They're pushing Web 2.0 to the next level: Web 2.1, at the very least. - Chris Baskind

All I see is a mailling list building squeez page, heh.. - directeur

no, no, no, no. This is not good. - Jon Gosier

Duncan, my point exactly - I'm so not waiting for this one. - Orli Yakuel

And they promise this, "Imagine you could know what Jason Calacanis is thinking in the shower." I thought I knew already; bulldogs and cash. With that said, soaking up other users pith-streams will be all the more easier. And Eisenberg is right; this vaporware will collect 1000s of email addresses before the scam is shown up. - Christopher Harley

I can't trust it, sorry :) And i gave them a @yopmail.com to see the replay, this one was a followup from an aweber autoresponder... big! they call this marketing? i call this crap - directeur

BUT...did it make Robert cry? - Paul Fabretti

Robert, you'll probably cry for wasting your time.. - Orli Yakuel

The only reason to join all these potential "next twitter's" is to secure your name. - sdfx

Better pre-register your username Robert! - Colby Olson

@Brian agreed on the email response, how confident are there - Our team has been quietly working in stealth mode for 6-months building the app that will kill both Twitter and FriendFeed overnight! - Joe Dawson

These guys already know about Scoble. If they have half a brain they'll be damn sure to save his "Scobleizer" identity for him and not some jerk out there trying to steal his name. - Susan Beebe

I got their second email, and.. well, are they name dropping or something? I hope someone from outside of this echo chamber signs up and wonders to themselves "Who the hell are Scoble and Calacanis? They sound like the new pokemon." - Colby Olson

@Scoble - the lofty email sure makes me think they've got the new internet or something...so yea, that would make you cry, me too actually! ha, ha! - Susan Beebe

@Scoble - what do you know about their comment, "the moment he thinks it" - are they going to insert a brain transplant in your head or what?! LOL - Susan Beebe

I just got the email too and thought to myself "I already know what Scoble is thinking, what I really want to know is what Susan and Louis are thinking." - Robert Scoble

ALL This is plain STUPID. They are harvesting in a very legal way with an opt-in list your emails... I bet it's a joke, Robert, isn't it a joke? - directeur

directeur: first of all my email is on my blog and anyone can have it. Spam away. Second of all, I don't think it's a joke. We'll see, though. I'll let you know. - Robert Scoble

Reminds me of http://www.zombo.com/ - Paul Buchheit

Wow, thanks! Louis and I better watch ourselves otherwise the Zombies from ZobZee are gonna put that little brain tracker in our head too! Noooooooo! - Susan Beebe

Robert, thanks, I don't think that it's about your email actually, but about million of naive other people... anyway, we'll see - directeur

Paul, I remember Zombo well. "You can do anything at... Zombo." My former colleague was caught signing up our boss to their mailing list. No telling whether that was part of why he became a former employee. - Louis Gray

@Paul re zombo.com = ROFL ...wow, where's my playdoh and crayons? and what's up with that psycho hypnotic thing in the middle of the screen? - Susan Beebe

Thank you for requesting to be part of our beta. Our team has been quietly working in stealth mode for 6-months building the app that will kill both Twitter and FriendFeed overnight! While we can't tell you exactly how it will work right now, you can be guaranteed that it will blow your mind. We've taken social media to the next level. ZobZee will be like plugging your brain right into your friends brain and actually knowing their thoughts as they think them. The tech is so revolutionary that we had to get special government permits to test it. Initial testing was done on a few select, not to be named, a-list tech bloggers. The response? Total and complete mind melding with the most important geeks in the world. Imagine being able to know what Scoble is hungry for the moment he thinks it? He doesn't even have to type it... just think it, and you'll know. Imagine you could know what Jason Calacanis is thinking in the shower. If you are his Zobzee friend, you will know immediately and you could share all of - Brooks Bayne

Sounds irresistible!!! Must have Zobzee. Even if it is some sort of marketing stunt :) - Andrew Smith

@Wolfsbayne - that's the lovely email we all received from ZobZee earlier... this seems like *way* too good to be true?! - Susan Beebe

For all of the jive talk this had better be a mind blowing service or there's going to be a big let down. - Colin Walker

That's what they think is called "copywriting"... come on! :) - directeur

I think maybe it's an art project. They're probably making a statement about society or something. Here's their office: http://spacesgallery.org/map... - Paul Buchheit

Jim Kukral having fun.. . http://who.godaddy.com/WhoIs... - Nick Reynolds

whoa, that office space is sorta scary... and the domain name is only registered for 1 year...hmmm looks suspicious! ;-) - Susan Beebe

Paul: maybe, yes... but it's done wrong IMHO. - directeur

hoax http://is.gd/piD - Brooks Bayne

Folks, with aweber, you can unsubscribe! Go ahead and do it for the love of love! :) - directeur

and then fill their database with tons of disposal email adresses you won't use anyway - directeur

Last remarque: If they really were working on this for 6 months, why is the domain registred yesterday/today? :) - directeur

Good point and I will have to check it out!! - Paul

updated my blog: http://wolfsbayne.tumblr.com/post... - Brooks Bayne

"I already know what Scoble is thinking." I think that's the funniest thing I've seen from Scoble. - Michael C. Harris

started a new room on friendfeed for hoaxes http://friendfeed.com/rooms... - start posting up. - Brooks Bayne

Here's Jim Kukral http://friendfeed.com/jimkukr... - Christopher Harley

Talk about arrogant. Too bad they chose a name 80% of the speakers of the world's most popular languages can't pronounce. - Liron Tocker

+1 Christopher. And I, for one, signed up. I need to know what Calacanis is thinking in the shower so I can know the EXACT moment when he decides to change direction for Mahalo yet again and then I can rise to the top of Techmeme as I so VERY deserve to do!!! - Cyndy

Maybe it's just a joke? - Pavlo Zahozhenko

The domain name 'ZobZee.com' was registered yesterday, as was the Twitter account. I'll venture a guess that a company with $50 million in secret seed capital would register their domain more than 12 hours before starting their viral whisper campaign. Jim Kukral (jimkukral.com) registered the domain, and as a professional online marketer, I'm guessing this is more of a portfolio example to demonstrate the kind of interest he could generate for a potential client, rather than an actual product. I could be wrong though. :-) - Kevin Fox

The ZobZee makers have another satire site up: http://www.blogbucks.com "The fastest & easiest way to do absolutely nothing to drive a 'flood of traffic' to your blog & wads of cash into your pocket!" - Philipp Lenssen

Kevin: If his aweber followup is what this guy calls copywriting, let me smile a little bit. This is NOT copywriting! Period! :) - directeur

no way this is legit. these clowns are internet marketers trying to hustle people is my guess. - Rodney Rumford
