Snapchat's timeout feature is not just a novelty, is it allowing for a whole different type of digital communication. The sender does not have to worry about where their image might show up. It frees people to take goofy photos and act

Yes, when I read that I made sure to note the year. It is true, he was not far off. I would love to see what else he said around this sentence, maybe he did recognize the huge non-commercial potential but this is the only sentence that got

This looks promising and is something that is needed. It is tough tracking whether a click actually led to a download through the appstore.

[On one of the reasons they have a 7 day payout period] We were not willing to compromise on the experience of going to Stripe, deciding "OK, Stripe looks good, I will sign up.", and then can launch right there and then. What a great, foc

Yeah, pain points and inefficiencies are a popular way to look find ideas. However, I have found following a user behavior to be a little more useful for me. Sometimes the new idea or innovation is not easily categorized as a pain point, li

With the fragmentation of mobile operating systems, this move will take quite a while. As long as Apple, Google and RIM do not allow cross-platform messaging outside of SMS, SMS will still stay strong. I will always have friends who are usi

Great job with the site! This space is definitely in need of some innovation. I actually immediately thought of Plancast, but WhereBerry seems to be focused even earlier in the decision process (I want to do this, but don't know when). My c

I have thought about this type of service for a while. The problem with Facebook and Twitter is the signal to noise ratio is too low. Your status saying, "I am going to be here, who wants to join" will only be seen by a fraction of your fri

I like the wireframe and have been thinking that a tracking tool like this would be useful (tracking all the site changes on a timeline with key metrics). Oftentimes I find myself hopping back and forth between our change logs and the analy

Thanks. I have never heard of TXTMob. [edit] - after reading that I do remember hearing about this while reading about the beginnings of Twitter. Unfortunately when brainstorming domains I did not recall TXTMob.

Thanks. Yeah, I created this over the course of a few hours. It is hosted on Google App Engine and uses Twilio to setup the Groupme numbers (by sending an SMS) To clarify, I am not going to use the phone numbers in any way. I do send them o
