Fast Society Is Ready To Party At SXSW (Exclusive Demo Video)

If you are a group texting startup worth your salt, you've got to have a new app ready for the upcoming SXSW conference in Austin. GroupMe, Beluga (which was just bought by Facebook), Kik, TextPlus, and offshoots like Yobongo will all be strutting their stuff. Not to be outdone, Fast Society just pushed out a completely revamped iPhone app and an Android app is coming out today as well. I recently visited the three-man team in the New York City's Dog Patch Labs. CEO Matthew Rosenberg game me a demo of the new app (see video above). Instead of simply launching a group chat into SMS, it takes advantage of push notifications to bring the message stream into the app itself, much like GroupMe's latest release. The app is a vast improvement over the previous version.
