Hacker News works for programmers because programmers work in text and Hacker News is pure text. I don't think it would work for artists, I think you need something much more visual.
- texjer 15y agoText is still the best way of discussing ideas, even among artists. My concern is that a similar service won't get any where near the critical mass in terms of its user-base... which may be because we're more visual ;)
- dholowiski 15y agoHm, what about a subreddit? It's a bit more visual, and comes with (at least the potential for) a built in audience.
- texjer 15y agoBrilliant idea, I've never been very far below the surface of Reddit. I'm a big fan of the @newsycombinator twitter account for mobile reading -- do you know if there's a way of making something similar for the reddit subgroup?
- myearwood 15y agoI can build a twitter bot for you based on your subreddit . Email me . my email is in my profile .
