Why would someone use this over the myriad of free, web and mobile chat applications that already exist ?
You've got Skype, IRC, Slack and Camfrog etc which are ubiquitous.
On Android and iOS you've got LOVOO, Whatsapp, Facebook Messenger, Wechat, MeetMe, Kik, Juamo and so on with millions of users between them.
If people are looking to meet others then there is Tinder, Grindr and the myriad of similar apps to choose from.
So why is someone going to be interested in your poorly constructed, Bootstrap designed web app ?
