I like the idea but why did you choose a public channel to share links to a private resource rather than something like direct messages?

  When we first discussed this, we came to the conclusion that a lot of people don't read direct messages in Twitter. Based on this we chose to use a mention instead. However, we are working on letting the user choose its preferred method of notification from within the app.

    That's a good point, and given the non-standard treatment of DMs in most twitter clients I've used it's almost definitely the right choice.

      Added benefit of it spreading word of the service. Didn't investigate beyond the explanatory video, but it looks like a half decent idea. Just work on the public/marketing site a bit and I think you could pick up a few users. I also like the idea of intro seeds/credits. Well done.
