I think every product owner has anxieties about what features will/will not be deemed worthwhile. This is why the "BETA" tag is so ubiquitous. The only way to really know is to have the crowds decide, so just go for it! Edit:

This makes a LOT of sense for the elderly. My grandmother occasionally schedules a pickup from her home in the suburbs, and the system is very lacking. First off, it's based on scheduling a time far in advance. Second, there's no

Most people don't consciously think "News Feed is full of clickbait"; instead they value the overall experience less, e.g. "I find News Feed less entertaining/worthwhile than BuzzFeed". They aren't aware o

It only works because the other party (Bitfinex exchange) is centralized and therefore can be held accountable to pay the miners. Reorganizing the blockchain is not possible (aka economically incentivized) in almost all other circumstances.

Twitter desperately needs this. There are far too many garbage (spam/bot) accounts on their service. I think this will help people filter out such noise a lot easier - looking forward to it!

The part that has impressed me about Twitter/Vine/etc over the past few years is their content embeds in other sites/services. Their main apps are so riddled with junk that I hardly use them. The real estate in their feeds de

Do you see the evolution of iRobot-esque autonomous cleaners as a threat to your business? Are you planning on pulling an uber with all the capital you raise and pursuing R&D of said devices?
