Truemors – Tell the world

Truemors, as the name suggests is a true rumors website. It has been built on the lines of Digg.com. It doesn’t need you to register on the site to post rumors. You can post them on the walk. you can also post a rumor by sending a message to an email address. You can also call up a number and leave a message. Also you can send a text message to 55022 for posting a rumor.

They have no means to prevent something from being posted. And there is no moderation too. So its a celebration for spammers. Check out the rumor that i posted few minutes ago.

The man behind this awesome(?) project is Guy Kawasaki. Thats the only reason many blogs like TechCrunch are writing about it. Guy is losing his name through this project.

Let these be on one side. On the other hand, most of the times, the site doesn’t load for me. Even if it does, it takes too long to load. I get weird errors on the site too. Once i got a “WordPress” error. Check it out below :

So, it definitely right to say that this site is a 99% failure.

I too made many posts pretending to be Guy and Kevin Rose. Really crap now. Guy needs to work a lot more on it.

I actually visited that site last week and it was working fine. I like the site and enjoyed my reading time there. It looks like Guy has spent some time on it.
