Blueman – Now we get it!

If a picture really is worth a thousand words, we think that this one more appropriately demonstrates the significance of Blueman than anything else.

Blueman – We were Slow to GET IT :)

If a picture really is worth a thousand words, we think that this one more appropriately demonstrates the significance of Blueman than anything else.

For those that still don’t get it (err… it took us awhile too), you only need to look as far as Xat’s own tweet:

Next power is blueman, think pink only blue.

Blueman really doesn’t have anything to do with user rank. In fact, if you get a chance grab a teste, knock him over the head and drag him off if you have to, and have him/her show you what Blueman looks like next to a member pawn. The difference is subtle but it is there; Blueman being just a touch darker than member. It literally is just like Pink only Blue. Maybe this is Xat’s answer to what has seemingly always been thought of as a “girly” color (Pink). Doesn’t it make sense then, that if Pink equals Girl, that Blueman should equal Boy? Could this be the making of Xat’s first (or second) gender oriented power?

Just a thought

Update: ACKirbachu was nice enough to submit this comparision showing the difference between Blueman blue, and member blue…

Next Xat Power to be Blueman

Naes, over at xatBlogs was the first to post about the new Blueman power that Xat, only minutes ago, announced on their Twitter feed. We know very little at this point; just that it appears to be like the Pink power, only Blue.

Update: Brian is currently testing Blueman and has posted a screenshot of blueman to his own blog.
