Heello new social network from TwitPic

Heello.com has just landed, and looks an awful lot like Twitter. In the past few months Google+ is taking on Facebook, Twitter is taking on TwitPic and TwitPic is taking on Twitter with new platform Heello. I was in that registration process lightning fast and got the username @jack, I was expecting it to be gone but when the green tick came up, I've never hit confirm so fast.

At present the site seems to just be a clone of Twitter but the developers are saying that much more is coming, @meltingice has also hinted at the use of SMS as reason for the 140 character limit on Pings (effectively tweets). He has also stated that business features are coming soon. Having been a member for about an hour now, I'm excited as to where this could go. It's a really exciting time to be working in the tech startup world. Although I can't hep but think that products are going in and out of fashion faster than clothing! The Heello blog claims that they are trying to change the way that people comunicate and have a bunch of new products in the pipeline which I'm sure means Apps amongst other things.

Noah Everett founder of TwitPic and Heello told TechCrunch "“Everything we’re working on right now is under wraps for now, but mostly everything we’re building helps people communicate better." With the new Facebook calling app, O2 Social Call app and Google+ meetups, everyone seems to be set out trying to change the way that we all communicate. We'll just have to sit back and see which ones truly take off.
