It's a good idea. Maybe you could do a homepage similar to craigslist so people can select their city once you get enough events. Have you checked out the competition? I found hackathon.io doing something similar.
Good idea! This is definitely a feature I'll be adding in. The more I use it the more I see a need for the reminders to be displayed in an easy to read list. Either under Manage Posts or a separate page or both. Thanks for the comment.
I like the idea of letting people post notes before asking them to sign up. Until I get that setup I may just have a demo account that anyone can use that gets wiped clean each night. Thoughts either way?
The extra space in the sign-in field is for twitter and facebook sign-in icons once I get them working, which is hopefully in the next week.
rumberg: I agree with you on the design. Thanks for the tip on Open Sans & PT Sans. I hate to have the design follow, but I have to prove the need for the product before too much time and effort are put in on that front.
You wouldn't let someone know there's a problem and see if they open a window or call someone, before trying to put the company out of business over a minor problem no one was aware existed? That's really terrible.
It would be design by committee if every idea gets incorporated as a feature due to a lack of vision and leadership. That's not what I'm after.
What I'm suggesting is more like poll the audience in Who Wants To Be A Millionaire. While you would think that phoning a friend or reducing the answers to 50/50 odds would give you the best chances, polling the audience returns a correct answer 91% of the time.
I'll accept all ideas to improve the existing product, but only those that are vetted through both the community and me will be implemented.
It won't succeed if everyone is a chef. I don't think it will succeed if I am the only chef either. So I aim to find a happy medium.
i'm pulling random results for topics but since there are only a few of them it appears to switch around. once there are too many topics to list how do we order them? alpabetically, by comment count, trending, etc. it's open for discussion. good catch!
Thanks for the input jiggity!
Great ideas, especially the UI screenshots.
I do wonder how many sites are launching each day. Or for that matter, apps, site relaunches, new features, etc.
It's more fun to code then to dig into that research so we'll see where this takes us first.
