WHAT IS TellYouWhat?

TellYouWhat is words expressed to tell someone something. That someone can be a friend, a person or an entity and we call that someone an ADDRESSEE. That something you express we call TellYouWhat.

For example, you might want to express something (the TellYouWhat) to a Friend who is the ADDRESSEE, something like the following, which is obviously a positive expression.

TellYouWhat

FRIEND

You were awesome! I really like the way you handled the situation in the party! Thank you!

___________________________________________________________________________

But then the TellYouWhat you are expressing could be negative, neutral or whatever you feel like that you really want to express to your ADDRESSEE. It’s as simple as that! The example you see above is pretty much how your TellYouWhat is rendered after you submit. Other users can comment on your TellYouWhat  using the LEAVE A COMMENT link.

At this point of the site’s evolution, we are requesting just one photo medium insertion to not only save space but also lend value to the words expressed in the TellYouWhat rather than clutter the pages with photos and other media. Also note that the one photo, if you were to insert, is restricted to a 150 X 150 pixels’ size. In the future we might change the policy so that media beyond a one photo request and greater than 150 X 150 pixels’ size may be allowed based on user feedback and our own “capacity” to enhance the site.

We believe that’s all there is to know what a TellYouWhat is!
