I read about this site called Chatterous getting funding over at VentureBeat.
Widgeo.us and Chatterous seems to be trying to solve the same problem.
I’m not sure how much Widgeo.us is getting but I wonder if Ridz will ever say a similar thing to me:
Cofounder Kenshi Arasaki just emailed me to confirm that the startup has raised an angel round of “less than $1 million.”
Really begs the question - how to compete?

hmmm, ease of “one point” communication is only 1 part of widgeo.us. i think the platform for porting services into widgeo.us is unique and has potential.

Hello! I believe widgeo.us has a bigger scope. Which really makes you wonder when they can only get less funding.

$1 is “less than $1 million”.

$999,999.99 is also “less than $1million”.
They might as well don’t say how much. Say equal don’t say.

It’s still in beta but a nice and standard looking site. Interested? Nop for me.

Whatever it is, I think it might not be too presumptuous to assume the amount is more than Widgeo.us.
