It´s amazing how some guys can turn into millionaires just by doing some app and then selling it for billions!!! Talk about being lucky!
Too bad i can´t code...
Also a new tech bubble must be about to explode...

Couldn't care less. There are many other ways of communication. WhatApp isn't the only one...

No, but it's a shame because WA was the best messenger on WindowsPhone

It's all well and good saying use another app, but when everyone you know only uses whatsapp another app won't do you much good at all...
See what FB do with it I guess, removed my number from my FB profile, as long as they don't store it still (probably do), then they shouldn't be able to link the two accounts.

$19 billion is an incredible amount for a single mobile app business that only employs 55 people.

Unless something sketchy comes out of Telegram... it seems like the best alternative to WhatsApp, specially in what concerns privacy.

Funny, I was just reading WhatsApp's TOS few weeks ago and decided not to get one because of it. I don't use Facebook and not planning to get one. Seems like I will still be using good old phone calls and SMS's. No Skype on my phone. 🙁
I well, good for WhatsApp, prolly good for people who use both.
