Show HN: A tool to learn how others feel after reading e-mails from you
- adamzajdzik 9y agoHi! Communication is hard. People mostly get bad vibes from e-mail. Combine these to and your get a lot of unnecessary misunderstandings. I think the world needs more emotional intelligence and that requires healthy feedback. https://xn--du8hsrobxe.ws https://xn--du8hsrobxe.ws is a simple tool to get feedback from people you communicate with. 1. You get a simple HTML code you can paste into your e-mail signature. 2. The code contains one question ("How did my e-mail make you feel?") and seven emoji. 3. People can click emoji to give you feedback. 4. You can see results for last 30 days. I made this MVP during last weekend. I coded it only using left hand... right one was busy holding my baby daughter. I'd be grateful for feedback. Thank you! PS. Actually the URL is all emoji and .ws - too bad you can't post emoji in HN comments :(
- jannes 9y agoWhy the hell would you get a domain name that includes emojis? You realise that nobody can type that comfortably on a computer? (except maybe on a MacBook Pro with Touchbar) Congrats on coding this with your left hand only, though!! About the idea: I really like it! However, I wouldn't use it in professional correspondence because of the emojis in the link. People have been taught to not click on anything sketchy in emails. There's a good chance some people would suspect my PC to be infected with some kind of malware.
- ezekg 9y agoCtrl + Cmd + Space on macOS brings up an emoji keyboard. Not many people know about that. But yes, I do agree that the domain is terrible. Idea is cool though.
- adamzajdzik 9y agoI found the domain name funny and interesting. But you're right, it's not the best idea to keep it. I'll find some other name soon :)
