(We're going to do a separate post on this in a few days probably, but here's a long story short)

Late October is when we started. Put together a spec doc. At first it was like two pages, we basically said: in order for this to be simple enough, we have to get it down to one page. The goal was simple sharing with your family, no bullshit involved.

Mark got a proof of concept up within 24 hours (layout, basic functionality, database,etc.) From there, we spent the rest of the time tweaking things, testing, user vids,etc.

Very impressive. Hopefully you guys can shed light on how you worked long-distance, managing time, doing this as a "side project", etc.

It's certainly a great gift to share with friends and family this holiday season!
