I'm not sure if the concept is really for a single user. It's more like you get to connect with people within geographically-defined perimeters.

- anotherpaul 9mo agoOne obvious feature would be to provide geo fenced Wikipedia or news feed. Like what is the highest rated/longest Wikipedia article in the area. Or maybe what's the 3 top radio stations and a link to them. There is plenty of local content that Google does not surface
- mvkel 9mo agoThese are great ideas!
- jcynix 9mo agoGeo fenced Wikipedia exists already, as a number of apps are available which offer regional maps with localized Wikipedia additions, see for example https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OsmAnd https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OsmAnd
- Adrian-ChatLocl 9mo agoI could do that. Have additional information about the area based on the perimeter.
- mvkel 9mo agoI am saying for it to succeed as multi-user, it needs to be useful first for a single user.
- nprateem 9mo agoTwitter was never useful for single users.
- patrik_cihal 9mo agoIt was. Twitter used to send SMS and therefore notify others on what you're doing even without them having anything installed.
- mvkel 9mo agoTwitter started as an internal service for existing Odeo employees, so an unfair comparison if you're talking about cold, starting a social network. Twitter didn't start cold.
