I was on the beta testing team and have been using Beeper for a little over two years now.

The convenience of having an application to house all of your chat networks is amazing.

    They will be offering a premium subscription offer for more bells and whistles other than the free option…I don’t know anything about user betrayals conducted by Beeper.

          You have no way of verifying that the client is only doing what it claims. The Open Source community is highly suspicious of proprietary software, doubly so when it’s based off of Open Source code.

          If youre okay with that then no worries, but ofr myself and many others it’s an absolute deal breaker.

            I’ll take the risk knowing what I know about the Beeper people that I’ve been working with for over two years.

              That’s fine… for you, right now.

              But I (and probably most users) don’t know them, over time people come and go, some even change who they are, businesses get sold. Only open source persists.
