“I made an app that orders delivery to a random location, and ubers you there”

Be sure to read down the Twitter stream as the creator documents its maiden voyage to a gas station.

Maybe someone can make a partner app that buys you an outfit of random items and tees up a random date. Then live stream each meet up.

From the headline, I thought it was for credit card fraud! Order valuable, fenceable goods with a stolen credit card, and then use Uber to make sure you're at the random location when the goods arrive.

That was one of the best twitter streams I have ever read! definitely one of the worst ideas ever conceived!

It's a Tor exit node for you and your food.

Now, the true measure of the latest bubble will be how long it takes for this person gets an unsolicited offer...

The world has needed this.

Ironically, if you add some social element to it, you will probably get more long-term users than apps like "Yo" did.

Probably need to filter locations so that you don't end up outside a prison and you could also pick the food joint based on the nearest restaurant that delivers to the random picnic area.

Stupidhackathon not withstanding, this idea isn't bad at all.

Randomness is always awesome. More apps/products should inject some.

What API does this use for delivery? Postmates?

At least it's not just "orders delivery to a random location". Oh the amount of trolling that would lead to.

That's a really great, terrible idea.

Twitter liveblogged thread documenting outcome. Not me.
