love the idea and I know I'd use it extensively but there's no way I'm giving such broad FB profile/activity access. Eliminate that and you have a winner.

Hi ljsocal, unfortunately we require every single permission we ask for in order to provide all the functionality we currently do. If its a specific permission you have issue with, I'm more than happy to elaborate on exactly why Stacker needs it.

You can rest assured that we encrypt all sensitive information before storing it in our databases.The security and privacy of our customers is our number One priority. The Only non essential field we ask for is your Date of Birth, and we only do that so that we can wish you on your special day.

For some reason I just assume that HootSuite, TweetDeck, etc. all do this, no? I use Buffer and don't see anything entirely compelling to switch. I also have tried HootSuite and the rate limiting and interface bugged the hell out of me.

Also, up your pricing. I bet you'll get more customers. I'd recommend: Free (for 30 days, no credit card), then $5/month, Amazing at $25/month and biz at $100.

A lot like Buffer, but I like the inbox part too which Buffer doesn't have. I can't believe Google Plus doesn't have an API, I would love to cross-post my stuff, it's crazy!

You are absolutely right, the Inbox is Stacker's most used feature. We find users coming back multiple times a day to respond to incoming requests from their fans and followers. We would be super happy if Google+ opened up their API. Its a great network, just needs to become more open!

G+ is probably trying to avoid what happened with App.net - cross-posting clients leading to seemingly active but entirely non-participating accounts.
