Duncan, I would highly recommend posting some sort of a warning about Revou. Specifically they are Alstrasoft rebranded. Do some quick searches for "Alstrasoft Problems" and you will see their track record is horrid. They have built their business around very well designed landing pages to sell their shoddy software. They are quite responsive during the sales process, but once support is required they are Casper the ghost. Revou & Alstrasoft should be avoided at all costs. Sunil, Thanks for the heads-up on this.

Stating: "Revou was founded on Dec, 2007 which we initially developed a social networking software similar to the micro blogging site, Twitter.com for our local automobile industry to create a platform for our users to get regular updates on major events" is big lie, as Revou is actually developed to sell as clone scripted only. With that, look like AlstraSoft has bad reputation of selling buggy clone products. Take a look at http://www.hotscripts.com/review/78318.html.

Where on Digg you see stuff others have voted for, on Twitter you see tweets from people who you have added. So you have far more influence on what kind of information/benefit you get from Twitter, which makes it a tough sell for verticals. The difference between Digg and Twitter is the content you consume.
