#12This is the most pointless, trivial, absurd, creepy app I've seen in a while.
Signed up.
I think it will be massively successful!

#13Didn't Facebook kill something like this a few years ago?
I think they have banned quite a few companies trying to do this. You can still do it on Myspace though ;)

#16The fact that this domain wasn't taken restores some semblance of my faith in humanity.

#17This is hilarious. And fits nicely with the expression, "girls are like parking spots; the good ones are always taken."

#18One of the problems with this from a social perspective is that people lie about their relationship status on facebook.

#19You could take the code base you have written and probably adjust just a few lines of code to turn it into an app that tells you when a friend dumps you on Facebook.
This is actually what I thought you had built, and for me would be even more useful + interesting.
(Or, open source the code and let someone else do it)

#20Kudos for releasing the app! IMHO, Unless you're married, don't put your relationship status on FB. Set it as hidden, or say nothing. When things change, and in life they do... the people from whom you don't want to hear are the first to notice and / or comment on it.
I even joined the group "I have never had sex with a goat" just so I could leave it at the same time I set my relationship status from "single" to undisclosed. Unfortunately, they got rid of that feature where it would broadcast to all of your friends that you've left a group...
