Reminds me of letslunch.com
- ashraful 12y agoThe basic idea is fairly similar. The key difference is that, instead of you requesting someone to have lunch, the app automatically pairs you with someone. I believe this would make the experience much more natural and fun. Also it solves the problem, where a large number of users are only interested in having lunch with a few people (VIPs on LetsLunch). I'm hoping this will make HackerLunch more about meeting interesting people and less about "networking".
- hashtag 12y agoI haven't used LetsLunch in years but the last time I did it was random pairing. You couldn't actually decide who to meet although you could submit who you'd be interested in and what general areas of interest were. If they changed that aspect then it sounds like you're building the original LetsLunch concept.
- syed123 12y agoHey guys! I'm the founder of http://LetsLunch.com http://LetsLunch.com we still have the automatching feature which schedules your lunches two days in advance. infact it is the most popular feature on our site. We do have a mobile app coming up in few weeks that will have same day matches and other geolocation/mobile based stuff. Good to see other sites coming up in this field.
- ashraful 12y agoOh sorry, I never used letslunch and always thought you needed to request lunches with people. Glad to know the automatching is a popular feature, since that is what my entire product is. Any thoughts or advice on HackerLunch? I'm sure you have a lot of interesting insights into the space since you guys have been doing it so long.
