Thanks for mentioning Pinterest as a comparison, because for the life of me, I couldn't figure out what Bagcheck was or how to use it.
Pinterest on the other hand took me a mere 10seconds to figure out what it was and how enthusiastically I wanted to use it.
- groby_b 15y agoIf you don't mind, would you explain what the draw is? (I'm genuinely trying to understand. I don't _get_ pinterest, and given the interest it's generating, I'd love to...)
- faramarz 15y agoFor me personally, it was the right tool at the right time. I got tired of saving pictures of the products and architectures I liked. I was searching but I don't remember how I came across Pinterest, but when I did, I had to get in. It was early in their beta, so I sent off an email to Ben and said if you want a loyal user, let me in right now.. and he did. It was exactly what I needed! I've been collecting all the gems of the industrial design world ever since. I even got my mom registered so she can find inspiration for her home renovation. It's very visually appealing. None stop inspiration.

- hashbo 15y agoI actually thought Bagcheck was a cool idea, I think given some time it would have morphed/pivotted into more of a business than just an idea.
