Currently, I am trying to start small by providing ways to enable current users to alert others to their projects and jobs via built-in twitter notifications. Also, I plan to post actively on GitMeet's blog about topics surrounding use of the platform, opensource software in general, and how developers on GitMeet can best utilize the developer recommendation system. Do you think the plan mentioned is a sensible one? Also, are there any other methods of gaining an active user base that would be more effective?
- fundamental 9y agoI think the plan is sensible, but not that realistic in terms of being able to reach a critical mass. If I was in your position I would integrate much more closely with external services (github/twitter/etc) to hopefully make it feasible to have stuff like recommendations work effectively with a much smaller user base.
- JamesPetullo 9y agoThank you, I will definitely make it my goal to include more features on GitMeet utilizing the GitHub/Twitter APIs.
- JamesPetullo 9y agoThank you for your feedback. As I add design/add additional features to GitMeet, how can I also be attracting users to reach critical mass? While the ideas that I originally outlined are certainly sensible, is there anything in particular that I am missing in my approach? Are there other ways of spreading the word about GitMeet? Thank you for your thoughts and time!
