Hey Bichiliad, I think it's friends trying to help us out since they've been waiting for this.

Yes, would work great on a bike if you could hide it well. Don't put it in a bike's frame though. Would block the RF. Under the seat would work.

Hey Joebo, I think they were friends that were excited for us. Some friends have been waiting for this for a while and want to help, so I don't mind!!

Hi ketralnis, thanks for replying. What do you mean Bingo spots?

Anyway, would love you feedback on the page.

Hi Guia, nope that is rendering correctly. What we've build is simple, but more than what you've seen so far. It's a page for collecting email addresses and showing how many people have signed up ahead of you and behind you. It also allows you to immediately skip ahead in line by sharing on Facebook and Twitter, something we haven't seen before on other pages like this.

Nope, there is not info on the actual product we are building yet accept for the email that is sent out when you sign up. We wanted to keep some mystery, but based on others' comments it sounds like we should be give at least some info about the product.

Ah, ok thanks Ryderm. If this wasn't clear, then this should be fixed. Regarding getting more info about what we are actually working on, check your inbox. However, we should fix the language if that's the sense you got. If people are annoyed, the last thing they are going to do is share it.

Ah, good to know. Thanks markdown

Hi Danny, James on our team does the front end, but my understanding is that it's all javascript.

Oh wow, similar ideas! Thanks for posting t0

This will only be on our page for so long, but we want it to live on! If people do like this we will put in the work to open source it so others can use it.

A couple features different from LaunchRock:

-Shows how many people have already signed up ahead of you and behind you

-Allows you to jump ahead of people by sharing this on Facebook or Twitter

Totally agree. Makes me think of this blog post I read recently where the writer basically generalizes an entire culture of people into a whiny group of people that spend too much of their time complaining about and criticizing other members of that group.

Nice work Zak! I've been waitin for something like this for years.

Congrats guys!!

Wow, really good answers. Glad we got to hear from Drew Houston.

Don't under-credit marketing. It could be argued that things such as Gmail and Android are "just marketing".

Don't take "Doesn't Matter" out of context. This is using this in the context of someone else say "But someone is already doing this" and your reply being "Doesn't matter."

Of course any competition will effect your business, but this can actually be something great. Having competition is like hiring a team of people (for free) to do the same thing you are doing but in a different way and then having them present the results to you.

Competition is not your enemy. It's an important part of a system.
