Ping! is Blackberry messenger for iPhone AND iPod Touch

[ivantwilliams]

...agreed, and a better contact/address book option, too

I've already gotten about a dozen random pings from people I don't know and 1 spammer. The dev is going to have to instill a blocking mechanism of some sort...

Really? I haven't. Maybe because my name isn't as obvious as "Dave". hahahahaha

I've only gotten Ping!s from Karen who happens to be the only person I've given my ID to. Those of you freely posting your IDs here should have a plan for Spammers.

You gave it to me cause you have taste....good taste, i may add.

I'll just change my name if it becomes a real problem. Wish there were easy facilities for that maneuver...

Yeah, it's not like HR Battle where you can spend 1000 gold balls to change your ID. lol

I believe to change your ID, you have to email the owner, and he does it for you.

I emailed him the other day about what to do when switching from one iPhone to another. Mainly because there is no 'security per se', I wanted to know what would stop someone from using my ID during the time Iwas switching devices...

When you get your Ping working (why does that not sound right?), let me know - you're on the list, sweetie.

I have yet to get my ping to work. I haven't received one msg, and I emailed the developer 2 days ago and haven't heard back from him.

 

[psylichon]

He must have heard about you...

 

[Hondamaker]

Since Honda is having problems receiving, did anyone else use his method of creating a ping group in their address books? Just a shot in the dark, but I'm curious if that has anything to do with it.

I'm going to ping someone and not add them to contacts and see what happens.

 

[Hondamaker]

i responded did you receive it?

no! Aaarrrggghhhh! Kaaaaaahhhhhnnnnn!


get the Star Trek reference?

I can't escape it....

Signed up, used my real name, figured the only people I'll talk to on it are my friends anyway.

Free on the iPhone app store - thank you very much for hooking it up w/ the free for a limited time! Telling all my friends!

Thanks for downloading! Using your real name is a good idea.

For those of you still wondering about the limited time offer -- Ping! is still free. There might have been a glitch in iTunes. Thanks everyone!

fung...are you the developer? Maybe you can help Hondamaker figure out what is wrong with his Ping!

the double pings are annoying to say the least

Got that right. Was just telling you about that. 90% of what I get are doubles.

Yes, I'm the developer. Please review www.PingMessaging.com.

I'm aware there are bugs and this will definitely be fixed. Email support@pingmessaging.com if you have specific issues. I'm working on a FAQ which should be helpful. Thx for your patience everyone!
