#2Hi, i'm one of the creators. We're interested in personalised content curation but wanted to take it back to scratch. To do this we're manually curating online content for users with one hand-picked article per day for each user.
We really want to build a relationship with our users and find out what makes them tick whilst delighting them with something new each day.

#6How will you know what I like?
Hey I'm one of the creators of Delight.
We're using Twitter as a starting point. We hope to work out what makes you tick, but ultimately that will only come from a conversation with you - thus why we've chosen to individually curate and pick content for all our users by hand.
If you pass us on any more info by clicking on "Tell us more", we'll use that too.

How are you monetising the service? Charging people for curation?

Right now it's completely unscalable, we just want to see if people find value in the personal touch vs an algorithm, as well if people prefer a small amount of high interest content rather than lots of mediocre stuff.

#9How do you plan to 'delight' everyone?
Hi sarreph. We hope to delight by understanding what each individual likes. From out initial testing, we've found that our first article is a pretty good starting point for tech "people" when we use their Twitter markers to inform us. From there we get a lot better if the user offers us valuable data points - either by reading the article or even better replying to our suggestions with feedback.
We'd all become tried of algorithms claiming to know who you are. We wanted to take this back to first principles and try to understand what captivates people.

#10"Twitter: We'd like to see you follow"
I don't understand this part. Should I give you my Twitter handle so that you can see whom I'm following, or a Twitter handle of someone I enjoy reading on Twitter?
