Feedback on our MVP - Social Video Conferencing
Please review our minimum viable product - http://qcst.co/cbhVf3
Invitation code is 'hacker' (ONLY 500 invites available!)
each invitee can invite upto 20 people
Please wear headphones, or enable push to talk!! We still haven't finished building echo cancellation so if you don't wear headphones there will be some unbearable noise.
Quecast is a social video conferencing app that allow users to meet and have discussions around very specific topics.
Users can create a channel/community around a specific topic and gather to have a discussion about the topic.
Up to 8 people can broadcast their video and thousands of people can participate in each channel.
We want to host great group discussions online!
Think of it as Foocamp (or Barcamp) done online.
I made a Hacker News Channel so come hang out!

- coryl 16y agoWhat makes you different from services like Tinychat or Stickam?
- heromaeda 16y agoTinychat focuses on disposable chatrooms. Quecast focuses on connecting people with topics and interests. We want to make quecast a place where people can have constructive group discussions (or at least aiming to). Stickam is one to many. Quecast is Many to many
- DanBlake 16y agoNot sure where you got some of this info. S tickam is not just one to many, they also have group chat. Tinychat is not soley focused on disposable chatrooms. We are very much so focused on topic based chat, as evidence by the fact of us hosting several recent events and even in the process of introducing a system similar to reddits subreddits. Just wanted to come in here to put that down so nobody gets the wrong idea about tinychat at least.
- daveying99 16y agoI like the app so far. Interesting take on video conferencing. Would be fun to see Twitter integration soon...
- heromaeda 16y agoThanks! Will definitely do it soon
- SingAlong 16y agoI found I could describe this in 2 ways: * Chat.StackOverflow without StackOverflow * IRC-like chatrooms Would be awesome if you offer to connect to some user feedback service like getsatisfaction or uservoice. I'm sure a lot of people would like to offer this as a kind of support channel for their services. Some suggestions: 1.) decrease the width of the left sidebar 2.) signup form doesn't submit when i press enter (the one where i signup with invite code). have to submit by clicking the signup button. 3.) you could make a business by charging people for making bots. or charging for chatrooms with more than a specific number of people online at a time (if it's a business). 4.) allow people to choose different nicknames for each channel. 5.) facebook widgets on the group pages for group chat :) These are just random ideas that occured to me. On the whole, it's a cool service with potential.
- heromaeda 16y agoThank you very much for the awesome feedback! Very helpful! Yes we'll make sure that signup will submit on enter. Definitely Facebook App is on our roadmap!
- heromaeda 16y agoWe're out of invites! Thanks for participating and for the great feedback! We'll send out another batch of invites when we complete our next interation!
