Re: Show HN: Someone.io – Task management for teams made easy
#82I used to use Trello + Burndown for Trello + Scrum for Trello prior to this. This looks better. It will have to be very fast loading and should have burndown & scrum like features before I can convince my team to switch, but thumbs up for the great job! I will give it a shot :) Kudos! Edit — Tried it out! is awesome! A few minor things though – It's a little too similar to Trello for me to bother switching, but looks…
"element:focus{outline: none;}" also violates accessibility guidelines unless an alternative styling is added.
It's kind of not cool to discriminate for the sake of "polish".

#83This looks awesome. A live demo page would have been great, but decided to gamble and provide my email anyways!
Some comments on initial signup: - Great approach to validating emails by sending an email after initially providing just that, As opposed to the classic "doing so after filling in all info". This way you get to figure out you messed up your email early in the process! I liked that.
- The confirmation email had a link to `Get started with...`. It would have been great if you also had smaller text saying "Or copy this link and paste in your browser: ...". Maybe it's just me but I get scared of clicking on links in emails without knowing where they are going to (or downloading in malicious cases)
- Would have been great to not have to go through so many screens for signup. Maybe have me provide my team name, name and password in one screen.
- The animations on the task cards and their dragging is pretty great!

#84Hey Lasse and team!
We just signed up and are giving it a spin. So far we love how simple and light everything is at the moment. All the features were intuitive as well, even those not explicitly stated i.e. dragging tasks around to reorder for example. Super cool and looking forward to a mobile app ;)

#85Just from looking at it, it looks simple, clean and intuitive. Would love to know how it's different from Trello, since it looks like you guys use Kanban too.

#86Hi guys, my name's Lasse I work at Someone.io :) We are really pleased to see such interest and enthusiasm in the product, it chimes with what we've been hearing from users since we launched our beta in May. Your feedback is very useful for us - Someone.io is still in development and we are currently in the middle of an equity crowdfunding campaign which you can see over at http://invest.someone.io . If there is anyo…
When are you going to release it for real? Unclear, given that the pricing page says "Coming this summer"...is it possibly in 11.5 months? If you don't get payments, how can we know it will still exists in a few months? Looks neat btw!
Hi jipiboily and pc86, thanks for this comment.
You’re right! That plan to release the payment model this summer was made back in spring and that text wasn’t supposed to be there... The reason we changed was we started a partnership with http://www.sintef.no/en/ (Scandinavia’s largest independent research organisation) in March which made us change some things about the direction we are taking the product in.
We have been working with SINTEF and 6 pilot partner companies to fine tune the product to meet user needs as they define them and also to make sure we have a premium, paid version that is going to work.
It will be rolled out by the end of this month and, while I don’t want to give too much away, there will be a free option and a premium version with extra features where companies pay per user/per month. We will be sure to let you guys know when we have more details.
Thanks again, Lasse @ Someone.io
