What’s your Uzzap Experience?

Uzzap

Uzzap

Many months ago, I saw some Smart advertisements of a chat service called “Uzzap”.

The animated advertisements were rather zany and fun. From the animation, I had a good idea what the service was about.

After seeing the advertisement, Uzzap to me was:
“Chat on your PC, then bring along your chat via your mobile phone”.

All this info I got from an online animated image advertisement just 10 seconds long. Nice!

More recently, I wanted to be more familiar with Uzzap. Thus, I played around with Uzzap and found out for myself what was behind the advertisement.

I first tried Uzzap in December. I downloaded it on Liway (my Sony Ericsson P990i), tried to register. I had to be patient to get my phone registered. Wasn’t sure if it was because I was switching between my old Addict Mobile SIM and a new SIM.

When I finally got my phone registered on Uzzap, I fiddled around the chat client. It runs on Java on my phone. I heard that different phones have different ways of rendering Uzzap.

I’ve discovered some of the key features of Uzzap.

  • Chat on your PC and chat on your mobile phone.
  • You can download Uzzap for free on www.uzzap.com .
    Using Uzzap is currently FREE as well.
  • You can add your Yahoo and MSN contacts to your Uzzap buddy list.
  • Invite your friends via mobile phone or email address to use Uzzap.
  • Send SMS, emails to your friends through Uzzap.
  • You can add up to ten friends and send up to 10 free SMS messages per day.
    I’m sure many of the Uzzap kids (“Uzzappers”) out there are maxing out this feature.
    I’m not sure, though, how much it would cost (if any) for a friend to reply to a message sent via Uzzap.

My Uzzap Experience

I tried out the Uzzap chatrooms one evening last week.

Most of the chatrooms were full, with a couple having 1 or 2 slots open.
Rooms had a capacity of 20 chatters.
Of course, my first attempt was to enter was at the UP chatrooms.
I couldn’t get in, the rooms with 1-2 slots available got filled very quickly.
Maybe my fingers were not fast enough, I couldn’t get in the room fast enough.

When I finally got in, I observed the community.
The Uzzappers were pros!
Good thing I wasn’t trying to engage in the chat.
My fingers aren’t quick enough to catch up with their chats.
I was wondering, how can these Uzzappers chat so fast??!!
Then I realized that some of them were on their PCs.

There are a couple of chatters (“Uzzappers”) who know each other online.
I was in the midst of an ongoing conversation and I wasn’t going to butt in just yet.
I know what it’s like to be in a community like this.
It has the highs of camaraderie and lows of fights.
It’s part of the chatter lifestyle.

I’m still discovering the many ins and outs of Uzzap. I’m not sure if its just my age (can anybody guess?), but using Uzzap hasn’t been a walk in the park for me. It’s taking some patience to figure out which icons do which functions, which keys on my phone do which. Ah, my thumb and brain are in hyper-mode when I’m on Uzzap. :-)

Have you tried Uzzap?
Whether you’re a newbie or a seasoned “Uzzapper”,
why don’t you share your Uzzap experience here?
