I built https://zebra.page/ during time off from work around the holidays. Stripe came out with payment links a few months later. Not exactly the same thing, but enough to dissuade…

I’m in the philly area and might be interested. @timraybould on Twitter, I’ll open my DMs.

I like to think of it as protocols being better “middlemen,” when they’re up for the job, compared to a company. Wrote about it here: https://medium.com/openbundle/when-protocols-r…

I'm trying to learn about information diets. Help a hacker out by taking this survey? Takes about 3 minutes and doesn't ask for name or email. https://goo.gl/forms/XIaVJDGCw5jEFpWB…

We (Ticketleap) did something similar in ticketing. https://www.ticketleap.com/info/selfie-ticket

What was it called?

changed the landing page a bit to include a signup form instead of email. Email is ross@hireross.com.

This is great, thanks for the writeup! We are actually building something quite similar. We have a rough landing page up at hireross.com. Airbnb folks, I'd love to chat if you're u…

Reporting in the app tells them how many have activated their Selfie Ticket. You can only activate it in the window 24 hours before the event, so it's a pretty good indication they…

You're right! The feature doesn't end by simply getting into the event. Stay tuned.

Look, you created Immunity Project. That's pretty cool and coming from that perspective, I can see why you think Selfie Ticket doesn't need emotion its positioning. However, we thi…

Completely agree. People don't have a problem selling tickets -- that's been solved. People do have a problem growing their community. That's the problem we're solving. Events are …

Very constructive, thanks!

You're right that this won't be adopted by 100% of attendees overnight, but we try to nudge them in that direction in the UI (make it default over the barcode ticket, etc.). Even s…

There are two types of people in the world. Those who hate QR codes, and those who don't know what they are.

You don't take the Selfie until 24 hours before (at most -- you can wait if you think you might sell it). Until then, there's a simple flow to email the ticket to someone else.

Couple things help this. Clock ticking, colors aren't known until late, it's part of the app (you could tap "back"). But honestly, many of these events we work with weren't scannin…
