The only concern I have is that most people still don't know (or don't use) Twitter, Friendfeed, Plurk, etc. So, while i think group based micro-blogging is cool, I dont' think it'll be very useful because of potential adoption problems. If you are going to use group-based messaging, email listservs, message boards and news feeds are easier with the masses. At Convos (http://www.convos.com), we use email listservs and mailing lists to handle group communication.

What was scary is that they send your passwords in URL... so its totally not secure. That for me is a no go... Hopefully they change it.. M I started using this yesterday, and its been down today.

China is always a good place for such kind of sites. Cool, I have a thought of building a similar site in China. China is always a good place for such kind of sites.

Works pretty good and is simple to use, even for those who don't have any Twitter experience. A good feature of Yammer is that it automatically allows people with the same domain address, didn't find out so far if Twingr also supports a similar feature?
