Novel. I like it.
Has me thinking about a 'slow' messaging app: basically email but in daily digest format. E-mail, but with the latency of physical mail. You may reply at your convenience. Your message will be received at the time of the recipient's choosing, along with the rest of the day's correspondence. Optionally including weekly days off.
Probably not great for business. Between friends it might encourage more long-format replies which might be more enjoyable; an alternative to short, frequent messages.
- s_kilk 12y agoI like your idea very much. There's just something about artificial constraints that I find appealing. Do let us know if you ever decide to build it, I'll be first in line to try it out!
- tempermanent 12y agoYou can just do this with your friends! Send long emails and establish an expectation of reply-at-your-convenience. It's a tricky norm to get started but once it does it's quite rewarding.
