Yes, we’ve been busy! This marks the launch of our second Facebook application, Promise Me.

Promise Me (http://apps.facebook.com/promiseme/) is our first “real” application. We kind of considered I Declare to be our trial run or proof of concept (but we still hope people enjoy and get use out of it). We think that Promise Me is a very unique and useful application that truly aligns the Swaplogic philosophy with the functionality of Facebook.

Promise Me allows Facebook friends to create Promise Contracts between 2 people. Like I Declare, promises can be about anything, but they can’t be more than 160 characters in length. Promise your girlfriend that you will take her out for dinner this weekend. Promise your classmate that you’ll do your part of the project by the end of the day. You can even ask your friend to make a promise to you, like asking that your best friend promise to pick you up at the airport after you come back from a trip.

With Promise Me, your Promise Contracts are kept private (only you and your friend can see the details), but your Track Record of keeping or breaking promises is public – so make sure you live up to your word! This application is all about building a track record of accountability. For every Promise Contract you complete with positive feedback, you prove to all of your friends that your word is as good as gold!

Here’s a quick overview of how it works:

1. Pick a Friend, a Promise (160 chars) and a Deadline. If you are the one Giving the promise, your track record is at stake. If you are Requesting the promise, your friend’s track record is at stake.
2. A notification is sent to your friend requesting that they participate in the Promise Contract (they can accept or decline).
3. If accepted, the Promiser should do what they said they would do in the contract and fulfil the obligation to the Promisee
4. After the deadline passes, a notification is sent to the friend who put their track record on the line to remind them to give feedback on whether the promise was Kept or Broken
5. Each member’s track record is built based on the number of Completed Promises. Compete with your friends to see who is the most accountable for their actions!

We hope you enjoy Promise Me. Add it. Fan it. Tell everyone about it.
