Apparently WhatsApp is in the marketplace now (though not in my region yet).

e: Spoke too soon. It's here too.

I am not seeing it in the marketplace. :confused:

Only there if you're on Mango beta/RTM.

I know it's gay as all hell, and was mentioned before- but with Mango out is there an app out/coming out that lets us WP7 users experience the joys of emoji smilies in our smses?

There seems to be an app that lets you copy+paste them. Doesn't sound great.

You could try contacting Microsoft about it, but I suspect the answer is No.

Goon projects are like text in Metro.

One of the reasons I bought into WP7 was the forthcoming Skype integration, and this still feels like nothing more than the most basic token gesture.

Don't worry. All you have to do is buy a brand new WP8 device and you'll get just that! :doh:

Seems it also added the ability to post photos to other people's walls as well as your own.

When I went to install it it told me that it wanted to use a gyroscope that I don't have. Will it still work well enough without one?

Seems to work reasonably without one on my Omnia 7.

However after spending a few minutes snapping photos, I hit the button to stitch them together and it just crashed.

Has anyone with a first-gen WP7 device managed to install the WhatsApp 1.8 update? Won't install on my Omnia 7 and I think I'm detecting a pattern in similar complaints.

I find the official one decent enough these days. Its the only one I've found to do tweet threads properly.

Is there any reason the Windows Phone Facebook app (even the beta) is so poo poo? Chatting with people on my Nexus 7 or iPod touch updates quickly and automatically. Doing the same on WP needs a manual refresh. It's like 1998 or something.

Good Enough™
