Free Group Chat App Launches To Challenge Campfire Campfire Competitor
Free Group Chat App Launches To Challenge Campfire Campfire Competitor. This looks pretty cool. Good group chat has something surprisingly few and far between for years. The key questions for enterprises and aspiring-enterprises are around security, nonrepudiation, and scalability. Can I create a channel that scales to thousands of concurrent chatters?

After a quick glance, I don’t know that this really counts as “group chat”. Convore looks more like a rethought implementation of forums than real time communications. It’s rather well done but doesn’t fit the meme of constant stream communications that we associate with group chat.
*off-topic rant* They seem way too interested in associating my other social media with my convore account. As with most other social apps they want significantly more information out of Facebook and Twitter than I’m willing to give them. This is one of the reasons that federated auth is failing miserably. I just want what is essentially single sign on. I don’t want to share my friends list with you as a trade off for easy account creation and management.
I do not disagree with this blog!
