Bound to be coming our way soon.

That's free voting for Americans though? Doubt we'd get it, maybe the facebook voting though.

The plan is to count tweets as votes. If they brought that system over here, it would lead to a loss of revenue for them. Voting is free in the US.

Likewise, they'd lose revenue.

Stupid. It would simply crash the Twitter servers. Non-XF users would be livid.

Why do Americans get free voting and not us?

They are allowed major product placements and get massive sums for it. Also (although don't quote me on it) I believe it's illegal for American programmes to charge for voting/competitions ect.

Because it's illegal to charge for phone votes.
