Except - if you are working on a project and Soshiku has a Facebook app you can just add your classmates to it and have communication be central and clear.

Unlike the real world where you often call one person and that person calls another person in the group and so on. Where there is no central repository for sharing links/resources for the school assignment.

Soshiku has a great design and fills a sizable need in my opinion, getting schoolwork done. I for one, probably would have used it in high school.

Pen and paper won't text me when I have an assignment coming due...

Your right. But it's very easy to carry around a to/do list, piece of paper in your pocket and keep an eye on things. Never failed me. The drop rate of SMS's is 2% or so on the other hand(not to mention dead batteries, lack of coverage, silent ringers, etc.). I've also seen many businessmen at the top of their fields using paper: a very simple, reliable and effective method.

I'm not saying this is a bad idea. It's definitely something useful. I just think it's not a great business idea. I think you have demonstrated great abilities, and you could put those to work on harder, more profitable problems.

Failed me all the time; I would've used this in a second.
