I work with 2 of the media agencies who do these bookings, one of which handles KFC. Results haven't been great but it's a fledgling product. There is a lot of consumer awareness to be done to get it …

They're not shutting down deals. They're shutting down the desktop version - the mobile deals product still lives. I think this is a sign that people are more likely to use a deals product when it's r…

This is really great. I've seen a lot of discussion around this problem but no one doing anything about it. Minor feedback below. 1. Make the "Take the tour" button bigger. Rather than "get started" …

Great stuff, going to share this with the interns on Monday.

A great analogy for the small, private mailing lists that seem to be every community's back channel. Thanks for sharing.

still loving this project. both my FB and Twitter account have laser eyes.

I really like the "I want to read / I want to write" UI element. Is that something you guys came up with or discovered somewhere else?
