Chirp Launches our Desktop App
This afternoon we're announcing the launch of our desktop app from Chirp. We took everything we learned from the full screen experience and made it into a tight little viewing screen that you can have running on your screen while you're doing other stuff.
It's like watching a fast slideshow, or watching your friends go by the from the seat of a subway car. I keep seeing it out the corner of my eye, like watching a channel of your friends on tv. Constantly updated with the newest, and some great archival surprises.
Then you can stop it and begin to get more engaged in the object that caught your eye. Share it via email or Facebook, see the meta information about it, who it's from, what others have said about it, comment on it yourself. Just a real nice way to grab all this stuff, stuff you care about but would never unearth. Then go back to the show without missing a beat. Make your own damn social network, if you will.
The download is Windows only (for today). I hope you'll give it a try and tell me what you think.
