Love the pseudo-tactile approach.

Very fresh and almost calming :)

Perhaps the next product launch is this awesome little stats dashboard you have.

Make it a personal goal dashboard for concurrent website visitors for one's own projects and follower count. Just as you have it. It's kinda like Venmo, except for one's own sites/projects/goals.

Personally think this is awesome onto itself. Just that current goal bar is a great feature. Subscribe to the goal. Once it's reached, subscribers get a note. "see you can do great things, Alice just completed her follower goal! Send a note and show some love :)"

"The path to accuracy" is an important one, and thanks for the anecdotal story here.

I wonder if a more appropriate comparison is Spotify and the world of streaming and micropayments for artist credit. If all of these models attribute biggest inspiration of art/text/etc it may expand revenues as opposed to diminishing them which at the current rate may be the case with "AI" generated X.

Lots of talk about artist rights as of recent with "AI". What do you think? Is this similar to the Napter days and what will become is more opportunity for artists in the future?

yeah, exactly. a nice thought. it becomes an extension of stack overflow experience a bit too. plus contextual relevance is very high, as mentioned below. use ML to connect topics of code and then create powerful network of contextual coding literacy through engaging media clips. a wild ride, also of intrigue.

Great concept and nice implementation! Feels a bit like Justin.tv meets Github. Very cool.

I’m creating a vessel inventory and maintenance tool for fellow boaters. Essentially, a boat’s headquarters.

I live aboard my sailboat and have found a need to have everything in an app for quick access and reference.

https://myvesselapp.com/

It’s in beta and I have 15 fellow boaters testing :)

Currently a web app.

Both intriguing concepts. #2 is my interesting IMO as it can possibly be used for signing up for services that one doesn't want to display their primary email address. It also has a 'Snapchat' quality to it where email is a 'one off' and the account can easily be deleted, etc.

Also a way to manage accounts online (testing services, etc). It may be able to better manage issue of spam that many experience as all accounts are linked to one email for many users. Email communication becomes unnecessary for many accounts, plus authenticator apps and twilio make email less important.

Let's connect. I have a side project I'm currently creating. Contact details in my profile :)
