Does anyone know their pipeline of games or other apps they are working? HeyCosmo… are you folks considering to add a dating or match making function?

Ladies, get your webcams and see you there!

Heycosmo has at least frame the value of being their video tech around the idea of doing something together other than just talking. Operator11 has focused more on the Andy Warhol-esque people as personality.

I think its too early to tell what will work. Though I suspect that it has more to do with game play and information dissemination than with voyeurism and exhibitionism.

This was inevitable, but I am really glad to see that someone is pushing the envelope in terms of elevating the real-time collaborative experience inside the online social networking world. Get the right balance of good technology (which appears HeyCosmo enjoys) and compelling content/experience, and this site could be off to the races! I will follow this with close attention.</p> I am impressed!

Video conferencing is something that has long been missing from other poker sites, and now I can’t imagine going back to staring at a blank table. Not only does it become more social, but also incorporates essential aspects of the game which are absent in other versions. Now I can call my friend’s bluffs and laugh as they struggle to keep a straight face. Great job HEYCOSMO, I'm hooked</p> HEYCOSMO is a genuinely fun version of online poker.

It is a cool tool for all the younger generation seeking online social collaboration, with a context. The context could be fun gaming night, movie nights, remote birthday parties, real estate seminars, etc... Truly mind boggling and something that is going to take off and compete with Myspace eventually with a more realtime touch to it.. Kudos to HeyCosmo!!!!!!!</p> The best site I have ever come across for virtual collaboration. It is a cool tool for all the younger generation seeking online social collaboration, with a context.
