After reading the PDF file and comments here I still don’t get the advantage, except having the task management functionality as a cool URL . Isn’t this a function of project management tools? Can’t I even perform this function using generic tools such as twitter? Would you mind to provide a use case or a scenario to clarify? Thanks.

#22I was confused. There should be a clearly visible video explaining it in 30 seconds. Explaining why it exists, how it works and what it does; the problem, the solution. The WHY is missing - WHY do you offer it? Why does it exist? - WHY should I care? - WHY should I be a part of what you do? - WHY do I need it?

Use case eg.: a Startup office is inundated by Sandy, I ask my team, friends (people I can ask for help in my contacts) to bring brooms + a pump +... now! and I want to have instant feedback if somebody takes care of it, who, or how many, and who can not do it. Them, just click yes or no.

#25I like the design and the ux. Task management is a pain in the backside and I'm still searching for something that will actually work for me, for both my personal to-dos and the organizations and groups that I help manage. I do agree with jeffclark that it would be a great improvement to better communicate the pain it solves and who it's for like smack bang at the top of the frontpage e.g. "Awesome task distribution…

#27While I appreciate a minimalist homepage/landing page/whatever, it would probably be a good idea to state what problem this product solves. Or even what it does.

Think of it as my Fireman "Golf11" channel that was giving us orders that we could fulfill or reject (bcs busy). A civilian channel complementary to 911 would be helpful in "war time" (Sandy) or in peace time ("bake some cakes for School party")
