I really do like your service, there seems to be a significant degree of scope and flexibility than Paypal. Paypal is clearly aimed at online shopping and payumi is more focused on group buying / social buying and social payment. Love it. Cannot wait until launch! Well done!

Then I started getting people sending me porn and really nasty things. I hated the language they used on there. I just couldn't stand it. At first, I just quit going there, but eventually I realized that being a member could destroy my credibility on other Social Media. Then my daughter talked me in to Facebook. I didn't do much there except play Farmville. Then I decided I was addicted to that, I quit Farmville and stayed with Facebook. At one point, I had almost 1000 followers. Recently, I deleted everyone I didn't know personally. That leaves me with about 200, including family. In the meantime, I have accrued over 54,000 good followers on Twitter. I cull them out and block anyone who is profane or obscene. I do not tolerate profanity of any kind. If you want to be a #SweetTweets, you have to clean up your language. I joined Google+ for business and because some friends are on LinkedIn and wanted me there, but still am not sure about it. I don't think there is porn there (yet) but when it comes, I will be gone. They sure won't be in my circle. I know I sound like a prude, so, maybe I am proud to be one. At any rate, MySpace, no thanks. By the way, I enjoyed your articles.
