A classmate from college built this app. I think it's a great idea and very well designed app and introduces a new concept of communication and social media. What do you all think?
I think it's a good first shot. I'm wondering what's going to happen to a completely anonymous forum as it grows. Will it devolved into /b-like behavior or will it find a way to rise above.
I'm hoping that the theme, some new features, and me keeping an eye on spammy content will make it rise above. I'm wondering just as much as you, though!
I am having fun with it, and it doesn't seem to be devolving.
Side note: I really want an iPad version. The interface doesn't even need to change at all, with the possible exception of making the airplanes a little bigger. I run it in 2x mode, but font rendering is massively ugly.
I want to bring Airendipity to iPad, but atm it's iPhone-only for the time-constraint reasons I mentioned above. I think iPad would be a great opportunity to stretch out a bit and carry a bit of the whimsical side a little further.
I wanted to try it out in my browser, but couldn't, so I hit the back button. (This comment is intended as friendly, constructive feedback on your process for getting new users, and definitely not as an insult.)
Hi, I made Airendipity. Long-time lurker, first-time poster, etc.
One day I want to introduce a web UI, but since iOS is what I know and I'm just one guy working nights, I went with iPhone-only. I feel pretty strongly that it's the API/community and not the device-specific UI that's important here, so... one day.
I was going to be stern about the unnecessary use of a GeoIP database on your website, but then I did a little snooping and realized that you're probably based somewhere near me. Hello local person!
