Hi All I wanted to get your feedback on a feature I was thinking of adding to <a href="http://sharecred.com">ShareCred</a>.

Often times, we see a good post, but have our own views on the topic. The problem with today's blogs is that they really are not made for equal opportunity in terms of sharing our views on the topic - that is, we are limited to posting a comment.At ShareCred, we recognized this limitation - and in the true spirit of an open dialogue, we now support 'different takes' on a post!This feature is...
We heard you!Sign-up to ShareCred now accepts just your email! You no longer need to sign-up through LinkedIN.Go to https://sharecred.com/signupIn case you have missed earlier conversations on ShareCred, it is a site for sharing our thoughts on any topic - with friends AND beyond. We are trying to redefine how a network can be formed - so far it is formed with people you know. We have seen...
We are eager to hear your impressions. Please sign-up and let us know your thoughts.
Having said the above, I wholeheartedly agree with you. In fact, we are working on a Wordpress plugin to let users cross-post to ShareCred simultaneously. RSS could be another great way, but we will have to work out ownership.
Frankly, I am glad that the discussion is about how to attract users than 'the concept does not make sense' - which was the first hurdle we wanted to get through.
Now that we are through it, I truly appreciate any ideas you (and others) can share.
We truly would like to know what you think of the site.
Having realized that, I agree with you. I think it is right to characterize what we are doing at ShareCred as a mix of HN and Glipho (of course with additional features, enabled by the combination).
Thank you,
But please kindly note that there is not going to be any connection between your LinkedIN profile and your ShareCred activity. It is used only for login.
The reason we felt limiting to LinkedIN logins was a good idea is that it is one way to ensure quality participation. But now, we understand the concerns.
Thank you,
Thank you,
Trust us (you can ask - what is that?), there is not going to be any connection between your LinkedIN account and your ShareCred activity. It is just a way to login.
Having said that, we will seriously consider opening up registration.
Thanks again,
I took a long time to get on Facebook, may be because the notion of telling my friends what I did every minute of my day (or sharing 'interesting' photos) was not my definition of keeping in touch with friends. Yes, Facebook turned out to be a great experience, just not what I had in mind for the use case of keeping in touch with friends.LinkedIN, defines how we stay in touch with our...
The current social networks are based on who you know - and a. the content gets pretty frivolous (Facebook) b. the content becomes unmanageable (Twitter) c. the network is too restrictive for free discussion (LinkedIN)We, at ShareCred, imagined a different type of network - how about a network that is not restricted to who we know - but based on the quality of the content shared?That is why we...
