How does this seem like a good idea?
A dollar could buy a cup of coffee or a cheeseburger or any number of things, but instead you'd waste it on this junk? It's junk. I can not benefit in any way from receiving any of these things. They would all go directly into the trash.
Essentially, all that this accomplishes is getting crap out of a warehouse and into a landfill.
I'm sorry, but open your eyes. This is either a bad joke, or you need a wake up call.
- shpoonj 15y agoWell that was pretty rude of me to say... I'm projecting from a deep and unsatiated desire for folks to rally around trying to create worth. There really aren't so many projects out there that do. However, these are sincere questions... How does this add worth? Who benefits? What is the point?
- kentosi 15y agoI agree with you, but what irks me more is the disingenuously of it all: "We'll take care of the rest". So basically I sign up a friend to receive petty "gifts" that some third-party chooses on my behalf with absolutely no thought given on my part whatsoever. How is anyone supposed to be happy about that? And on the receiving end of the deal, if I receive a 2-dollar present for ten days straight then I'll be looking for the unsubscribe button. The idea behind this startup - bringing random acts of kindness into social networking - is noble, but I feel as if they need to rethink their strategy a bit.
- geekus_maximus 15y agoI completely agree with you. This is a massively irresponsible idea for a company.
