Does anyone use Bitmessage here?
I've given this software a quick look over and I have to say, the concept of a persistent p2p messaging service using a network similar to Bitcoin is very interesting.

I'd like to know if anyone has had any experience with Bitmessage or had any thoughts on it too.

I use it.  Works well.  Just takes a while for blockchain to load. (Or 'Messagechain' if you prefer  Wink)

That's pretty cool, do you get much use out of it or is it more of a novelty right now?

I will take a look at it.  Tongue

No signature ad here, because their conditions have become annoying.

Ah, I couldn't remember the name of this (Duh, it's kind of obvious) thanks for posting this. I was looking for this the other day. I can't believe I forgot a simple name like that, I kept thinking it was Bitcoinmessage, however I guess I only thought about it for 5 minutes just before work.
