Awesome. Really helping people. How did you choose this idea?

As a user of several Google products, the "cattle-herded" metaphor is perfect. Not a week goes by without my needing to counsel a former Picasa users nursing wounds from the great …

This is why my company's board is 100% cyborgs.

Seems low.

This is clever. Officially clever.

Factually incorrect as of posting time.

The part I thought was interesting: "If I vote down a story that you voted up, your vote should count less in my rankings of stories. And vice versa. The same holds for comments."

Sounds interesting. May want to check out what these guys are doing for collaboration and ideas: http://www.hakkalabs.co/

Do users have a choice to participate in this feature? What will it do to battery life?

To clarify: if an email is spam, no number of Rebumps will rescue it from the spam folder. In fact, if it was just ignored the first time, it makes it more likely to be marked as s…

There's a wide range of urgency between sending a reminder after 3 days and ringing someone up to demand one right now. A Rebump works on a message that the recipient intends to re…

It won't be from us. It will be an email from a loved one, asking simply if you saw the email they send you a few days ago. Be gentle.

Yes! Many a heart skipped a beat during the period where this message was displayed, but we are back. All good. Thanks.

Personally, I put a rebump on an email to someone I need a yes/no answer from. Maybe it's a proposal that needs approval. Maybe it's whether they'll be joining us this weekend for …

Thanks! Its usefulness to us is why we were motivated to spin it off and release it into the wild.

As a human asking you for a response, I think I'd deserve one to my first email. I am writing the follow-ups in advance in case you starred it and forgot it, opened it on your cell…

This is a future feature and we are examining which method is best and whether people actually want it. Would you adjust the content of a bump based on whether or not the person ha…

We are not resending the original email. We are sending a new message you can customize that says some version of, "Did you see this?." Will definitely read up on those concerns. T…

Boomerang is awesome. And it will tell you when an email hasn't been replied to. But it won't automatically bump until you get a response. We think Rebump saves time and workflow t…

You don't reply to an email and you get a reply a few days later: "Hey, I just wanted to make sure that you saw this. If you need any more details, just let me know. Thanks again!"…

You can adjust the message and how frequently you want the bumps to happen. The people being bumped think it's you and they respond to the original email.
