Connect.Me : from Hoax to 20k users in a few hours
- Tichy 16y agoWhat does it do - did 20k people sign up without knowing anything about it? Kind of reminds me of dating sites: I have long had the theory that the less you write about yourself, the more attractive you will seem, because it leaves more to the imagination.
- Kudos 16y agoWhere's the hoax?
- necolas 16y agoThis article leaves me none the wiser as to what connect.me is. Perhaps 20k people are concerned with reserving their username on any service that springs up...whether or not it's clear what the service is.
- zdw 16y agoMy general mode of operations with services that require 3rd party authentication to work is: - Join, get the username I want - Visit auth platform, nuke their permission to do anything Generally works pretty well.
- lukeschlather 16y agoUntil auth platform adds new permissions. And there's some stuff you just can't nuke without removing them.
- jk215 16y agoAfter reading the article and the Connect.Me about I still have no idea what it does.
