I was working on something like this until BrainTrust.io revealed itself on HN. How do you guys differ from BrainTrust.io or DropBox if you are going more file focused?
- austinchang 16y agoBraintrust seems to be more company and enterprise centric which is a great market to grow in. Dropbox doesn't have the social component, group feed, and conversation around the media. Soon enough we will allow people to upload any media type and share it with the group and perhaps partner with a dropbox or dropio around hosting and serving the files. However we are going to stay focused on the socialization aspect of groups and try to address this notion of simple, private, and/or temporary. Definitely more to come!
- nopassrecover 16y agoGreat to hear but BrainTrust (and perhaps the creator can step in and clarify) was focused around groups of people originally until A/B testing and the ever-present need to make some income pushed it towards companies/project teams. BrainTrust has group feeds and per file discussion which DropBox does not as you've said (different focuses). Nonetheless I look forward to seeing how you guys overcome these barriers so I can selfishly learn from your approach.
