Yeah, I should do some more here, also let you pick families, or at least some pre-selected ones like birds, animals, plants. But there is so much more you can do, like spotted around me, or where I am going on vacation.
I think it is very smart to go after Facebook Groups. To me that looks like the sticky feature of Facebook that makes people keep using it and it brings in people not really using the service. If you want to keep up on the activities in your own or your kids soccer teams, you have to be on Facebook. Groups is the feature that will keep us on Facebook for the next 10 years.
But to me Spaces seem to take the usual too complicated approach from google. Making a new text post is two clicks away before you can start typing? Both Google search and youtube get more prominent positions then text when creating posts. They call it a group sharing service, so maybe they did the right thing and maybe this is what their mvp should be.
Feature requests:
- Events, and add to users calendar if they rsvp.
- Integration with google docs. And let it sync/control the permissions from within the spaces app.
right. Possibly high returns if you get it though. Possibly more units per customers and more potential customers. Also within a magnitude of the price of normal smoke alarms.
