People really love it! I think slowly forgetting our memories over time is a problem everyone can relate to, which is why most people immediately "get it" when they see it. The challenge is reducing churn because it's trying to change habits (which is very, very difficult). I'm still working on implementing things to make the product more sticky like Flashback emails (ex. "Here's what you were doing on this day last week/month/year") and integrating your journal entries with your photos. What sorts of ideas are you thinking about? And what's stopping you?

  I was writing about solving the problem of forgetting memories over time (or trying to memorize them and clunky own brain with unnecessary noise): http://lukaszkups.net/2017/01/29/In-search-of-the-Golden-Grail-of-productivity/ http://lukaszkups.net/2017/01/29/In-search-of-the-Golden-Gra... (IMHO it is somehow related about general productivity, to that's why I've named it as it is). tldr; I try to write short notes every day that sums whole day in 1-2 simple sentences. Everything is stored in my small notebook (moleskine-like, which You can take everywhere with You in the pocket). In the same place, I also moderate two lists: TODOs and TODON'Ts - one gather things that helps me to be productive and the other that doesn't work for me and should be avoided in the future.

  Thanks kbyatnal. I'm always looking for ways to help me maintain engagement with old friends in other parts of the world. It's amazing when a few months go by and you realize you haven't heard from one, even though you're just a quick chat message away.
