I've been using the beta for a while and link sharing has been helpful on group threads when planning out trips and weekend activities. The fast screenshot flow is also really useful to help get ideas across. One feature request - are you planning to build a global search-all-threads?
Joshua Wilson
@tylerdrake727 Tyler thanks for the feedback, glad you've found it really useful! We definitely think a "global search function across conversations/threads" would be cool (and useful). Your interest has been noted and taken down as an upvote for that feature. Thanks!

Big fan of this team and product! Sending large files and sharing content is frictionless. The integrated meme generator is pretty awesome too - love that I don't have to leave the context of a conversation to find what I'm looking for. Has me excited to see what other apps you guys eventually integrate.

This thing has blossomed from a side project into the main project. This team has worked on bringing more mobile through desktop and work their way back!

@Alex - thanks for the feedback (and for the twitter conversation). Adam and I split up answers so we could respond faster. * Re: bulk pinning, we'd also like to improve how linking to Google Hangouts affects your contacts list. Your feedback on a bulk "unpin" has been taken. * Re: Shuffling conversations: for conversations with open windows, you can cmd ~ through them on Mac. There's also an additional shortcut key for the menu - cmd ' ....which brings up the Skynet menu. You can just start typing and it will jump to the corresponding contact name/email matches. cmd ' and cmd ; are both *global os shortcuts* and work from any app. My workflow is usually: 1. copy something to your clipboard (a url, a file, etc) 2. hit cmd ; to open the composer 3. paste (the thing you want to send) into the composer 4. type in a contact name 5. hit enter to send

Is there a way for me to use skynet to replace Messages (texting) through my mac?
Joshua Wilson
@cindywu Not right now. Messages integration was something that product hunters asked us about frequently yesterday (via direct messages in Skynet). Consider your question here to be another upvote for it! Thanks;)

Does it integrate with Plug?
Joshua Wilson
@therealmattdyer Do you mean plug.dj or Plug, the lightweight hype machine player? Both are awesome, but I want to answer the right question! ;)
Matt Dyer
@makanikai Plug- the lightweight hype machine player. Didn't know there was competition in this specific name space.
