How it is different from sites like Quora, Ask etc.,? What is the value Arima providing which none of the above providing?
I personally had situations where people mix up mentoring with do my work. I helped lot of people, out of those only one really worked as mentor-mentee, all others are like please have access to my computer and do it for me. I think your website will address that issue, where I can simply say, this is how it works, go and try.
But, if it is FREE service, users may misuse (or) mentors may not spend enough time. There should be some benefit structure. When I say benefit, it doesn't mean monetary, it could be anything else. Look at StackOverflow, no monetary benefit, but people go there because "reputation", which in-directly helps in lot of ways. Good luck!
>This will not be great for everyone, guaranteed.
Good. As long as you are clear on your target market, that is good.
By displaying only one message how can you back up that users will be forced to write meaningful messages? Is there any behavioral science you have observed?
1) Why ask locals when websites like weather.com available?
2) How a user can find locals to the location he/she would go?
Before even worrying about recruiting/attracting users, I would try to spend sometime on identifying why this app is valuable comparing other well known apps. What is the pain you are fixing?
Nice one, will it send email for every check-in (or) only next GA/beta builds?
How is it different from freelance or elance websites?
I think on top the hangouts it would be great have a section/page which lists some example usages for that library. That way everything related to library will be one place. Opensource Wiki. Good luck!
Though I liked how professionally you concluded the thread, I think his/her point is very valid. It would have been great proof to people like me if you could have listed your app strengths and why those are important comparing with yelp, whether he/she will use your app or not secondary. Selling to tough masters is the key part of business, isn't it? Good luck!
Nice app. I feel like another biggest advantage would be if we can popup reminder on ctrl+alt+del press. Most of the times users step will go out without realizing meeting scheduled. If user see the popup, it will be reminder for them.
In a nutshell at this moment it is classification tool, but not based on pre-trained model. So, when it looks for feature index does it pick the first available (or) it iterates for best available? good luck!
I liked your business model (free API as PRO service by doing as manageable and customization services), Good luck!
I have few question, 1) What does it return as response to API call. I feel like API documentation is not good enough. 2) Is it text extractor tool (or) just image classification tool?
UI programming is different from UX design. If it is just programming 1000$ is too much, there are lot of other alternative options. If it is UX design I think lot more effort involved than you are assuming.
AOL had a service called Patch, this is more than just about the place, it pools all news local to the community. Is that what you are trying to achieve with Village?
I liked design and domain name. Good luck!
Nice to see another text summarizer. Do you have any accuracy stats on which categories this is good?
Nice and crispy design. Only two suggestions I have are 1) Recommendation page has too much information 2) May be using some colors to grab attention to important section of text. Good luck!
When we have barcode most of the cases we have item with us, isn't it? Then what is the use of getting the product information?
May be doing price comparison on top of this would be real game changer in my opinion.
Can you explain little bit more on "Debugging Tool"? How to use as Debugging tool?
Thanks! make sense. I have observed that lot of JS based SVG libraries having memory leaks and slowing down browser over the time, how paths.js behaves in this context?
Here is our story behind ezcoupontracker.
1) We get lot of emails from stores with coupons/promotions, but loose track of those emails by next day because new set of emails from same store, because emails are sorted based on received date instead of coupon expiry date. Ezcoupontracker solves this. It separates promotions and coupons and sorts coupon emails based on expiry date instead of received date. Ezcoupontracker fixes broken Gmail promotions tab and helps both users as retails to have higher return from their effort (Save money)
2) All information from the email is summarized, so user don't need to open email to learn more about what it is and our Android app will be handy at checkout, save time
3) Users don't need to share their personal email ID with stores (which most of the cases will be sold to spam), they can use Ezcoupontracker emailID which has less personal information, users privacy is protected.
We have our Android app (Version1) in Playstore. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ezcoupon.a...
Any core differences between Path.js and D3?
Hi, I am one of founders of ezcoupontracker. In shot summary, this application helps coupon users to track all their coupons at single place and searching for them will be easy, last but not least users don't need to share their personal email at stores, they can use email Id provided by ezcoupontracker. Happy to answer any questions.
