I'm glad to hear that you've put up a Privacy Policy. That should ease some concerns. I'll try to come over and check it out soon "in person" so I form a "fair and balanced" and opinion.

Sethi is not the only person affiliated with Twitblogs, myself (Roger Kondrat) and Santosh Panda are co-founders. 2. The team is nearly 10 people strong. The team is not Sethi, he is just one man. 3. There are many many sites that are 3rd party twitter sites and don't have a privacy or even a TOS on their site. Does that make it right no, but does that mean we are somehow worse? Definitely not. 4. We have put up a temporary Privacy policy as this seems to have become an issue because of TC and also our massive traffic influx from great friends/fans such as Mashable. 5. We never felt the privacy policy was an issue until later on as we intended our App to remain a private alpha for at least December. Our bad on not seeing the hockey stick effect on day 1 of our unofficial release. 6. Shame on you for not contacting me or anyone at Twitblogs about any of this, its fine if you don't like the product/service, but to suggest we are somehow untrustworthy without taking a moment to speak with us first is irresponsible.All that aside, I would like to thank you for taking a look at our product/service and trying it. Hopefully now that we have a draft Privacy Policy in place you will reconsider and even talk with us about where we are going, etc.Take care and merry Christmas.Roger Let me keep this to list form as I want to be brief, but first let me preface all of this with we were not launched yet when the press hit and are in the alpha stage of development.
