Beta Testers Ecstatic About Ben Rubin's New Video Call App 'Houseparty'

MENLO PARK, CA — Former employees of the viral video messaging platform "Houseparty" have expressed their excitement as they beta-test the new app, aptly named "Houseparty."

"This is the place to be!" exclaimed tech tester Aleksandr Kabol. "I'm currently in another Houseparty call with the board of Exquisity Envelopers, LLC, where I’m starting on Monday, plus 18 old pals I haven’t seen in years. It’s amazing!"

The new app boldly claims to be the same but better than its predecessor, while also insisting it’s its own unique entity. All the features are essentially the same, but seemingly, they are also different—like déjà vu for app enthusiasts.

"One exciting feature of the new Houseparty is what we're calling the Lobby setup. It's like a virtual conference table filled with everyone you've ever met! You can jump into any group chat happening in the room!"

"While I was in a whirlwind chat with every acquaintance I've accumulated over the past decade, I was prompted to dive into a conversation about my next multi-book deal with all my publishers and editors," boasted new bestselling Kindle Author and former tech intern Bobby Girn. "It was surreal! This will definitely be a game-changer for ex-housebound people everywhere!"

As of now, the new Houseparty boasts 1 million active users, somehow managing to gain traction without any real apps or official profile creations.

At publishing time, every former Houseparty user with kids had successfully reconnected in their group chat party that was inexplicably still live.
