Anyone Need a Google Wave Invitation?

Google's latest buzz is called "Buzz". I'm still wondering if there are people who still uses complex service Google Wave, after the launch of Google Buzz. I'm a big fan of Buzz and am pretty regular at it. Last time I logged in to my Wave account and noticed that I'm given the power of inviting others to Wave account. I don't know if there are people still interested in trying out Google Wave. However, if there are people out there who are still hunting for a Google Wave invitation, request one here.

TwitPay – An instant way to Pay via twitter

1

Undoubtedly, PayPal is the world’s most popular and most used online transaction method that made life truly faster than ever before. Especially for bloggers and other people who buy or sell stuffs online, PayPal made the method of transaction amazingly super and secure. And now, they have jumped over Twitter to make the payment even more easier.

All you have to do is pay a visit to TwitPay.Me and air a tweet from the form you get in its homepage. This is just promising your friend (in fact, the person you’re paying to) that you’re going to pay him/her. After you twitpay somebody, TwitPay itself will create a note of that payment on your and the recipient’s TwitPay account. Until you settle up that payment, TwitPay will keep a record of that.

Please note: In order to login to TwitPay, you have to obtain a PIN (Personal Identification Number) from TwitPay. Just click on the “Claim your Account” link from the upper right corner of the homepage and give your twitter username. Before you do it, you must Follow @TwitPay so that it may send you the PIN via direct message (DM) to you on twitter.

Got the PIN? Login using your username and PIN code. You will be logged in shortly.

In the dashboard, you will see the promises that you made to others and others made to you. Have you forgot what are the promises? Well, the status you updated from TwitPay homepage is called Promise. Please note that, you have to completely setup your PayPal account linking with your twitter/twitpay account in order to settle up (pay)  a promise(payment). You will find the options to setup your PayPal account with the current twitpay account or create a new PayPal account once you’re logged in to twitpay.

You can also change PIN (same as password, used to log in) from inside twitpay.

You can also cancel promises before they are settled up.
