Why threaded conversations matters?

Just a quick note about Threaded conversations on Whispurr. As you may know, Whispurr keeps track of the thread of a conversation.

This works like this:
  1. User A sends a post (either public or private)
  2. Other users see the post and replies
  3. Each new replies will be threaded to the original post
Advantages:
This new way of micro-messaging enables messages to be connected to a context - therefore allowing you to better understand what others speak about.

Let's take an example.

  • Alice sends a public message: "Hi, I am looking for someone that can help me in designing my own website."
  • John - a follower of Alice sees this message and replies publicly: "Hi Alice, I can help you.!"
  • Let's take Mike, a follower of John that has no connection with Alice. He sees John message in his Following section - but also Alice original message. Therefore Mike can understand what John referred to.
To see the full thread of a conversation, with all the replies, you simply can click on the link under the message. The thread of a message can evolve in time to create other new threads - when someone replies to a reply message.

Enjoy threads and keep whispurr-ing!
