The problem with active/young people market is they are very temperamental to ads, if you don't treat your user base like the tumblr founders have, they would have easily changed to another platform with less ads.

There's bots in JabbR too

That and I'm not spending 60$ for Google Docs access.

Looks good. I could've sworn there was another one like this. Maybe this is the one, or this one is a newer clone?

Like Mailinator, this is a great idea.

Kudos to these guys for putting their mail admin skills to good use.

Hell yes!

Im only 20 and if I can program/code/solve problems for the rest of my life, I know i'll be content until I die.
