I built this site as a quick test if a time boxed social media experience feels better than an endless one. So far I've just been using it with friends and it feels nice, but it seems like it is time to bring it to a larger audience.

Let me know what you think! It is just based on EST for now, sorry.

Ahhhh a friend and I created a similar idea for startup weekend back in 2014.

It was called Let's Get Weird.

App would open only from 11p to 4a

You were be able to chat and share pics only with nearby people

Selfies were upside down, because why not

At the end of the day period, pics, chats every thing got deleted and it was a blank slate the next day

I like how this is considered weird. Like, yeah, let’s talk and share our pictures globally in an instant to people we don’t know.
