From Download.com:
"WuWu is an incredible new group-based communication product that will change the way people use the Internet forever! Imagine being able to use one single interface to communicate with other people online using different methods like: instant messages, chat, file sharing, voting, and all sorts of other types of collaboration. WuWu uses 'Communication Modules' to do this which are simple to add and remove and they are completely separate from the application, which means that after the release people will be able to create their own custom communication modules using our moduleSDK."

I browsed the site some, it sounds sorta cool, but theres not much point in using it as of now, there are really no features to the software
Its plugin based, which is a major plus
I'd suggest reading through the site
One thing, NO SCREENSHOTS!! I can't find a single picture of the interface, and I'm not that brave to install it without screenshots, anybody want to take a stab?

Here's a screenshot and a real download page

It doesn't have any viruses detected and it doesn't seem to engage in destructive activity. It is a marketing tool of course, but those can be fun.

Have you run adawre or spybot on it yet to see if anything bundled comes up?

Have you run adawre or spybot on it yet to see if anything bundled comes up? No I haven't, please feel free to, I would love to hear what they say.
Specifically about being bundled, there didn't seem to be any other software installed in conjunction with it, no. It itself does want to talk to the world a lot, but all this junk does that. And I have no reason to believe that it is not itself both spy- and ad-ware in the same sense the search engines are. But the disk-image after uninstall is essentially the same as the one before installing at all, it doesn't seem to leave anything behind when you ditch it.

In practice it seems to be a clone of ICQ or AIM, topical chats and friends-lists and so on. 3 choices with your friends, message em chat em together or send em files. No ads so far, plenty of tracking.
