TinyChat Jumps To 1 Million Users, Adds Broadcast Feature And Facebook Chat

TinyChat, a straightforward chat platform that lets you create a throw-away chat room in a few clicks, is on a roll. The company has surpassed 1 million members in the 75 days since it began accepting user registrations, and is adding around 12,000 new members a day according to cofounder Martin Redmond (the service has been around for much longer than 75 days ? it just didn't promote user registration before then). Registration is optional, but it affords features like the ability to 'follow' other users and to tweak your site layout.�And today TinyChat is launching a feature that will likely see that growth jump even more.

It's hard to believe, but cofounder Dan Blake says that TinyChat has had almost no social features to speak of beyond its core text and video chatrooms. You've been able to 'follow' other users on the service which allowed you to send them private messages, but before now there hasn't been a notion of presence.
