Ask HN: Thoughts about our video streaming debating app?
1 comments
My advice is to find some users and get their feedback.
Good luck.

Sorry but this comment is not answering the question.
If there are users, then it is useful. Because the question implies the product is already under development, it might be advantageous to present the work effort to people. That advantage may lie in showing people something concrete rather than relying on their imaginations as a source of feedback.
The reason I believe it is advantageous is because what I imagine a video debate site to be is probably not how you envision it...and I don't have a positive opinion of what I imagine.

I agree. We are wrapping up a beta version and soon will are hoping to publish it on Show HN.
We are privately sharing the link to our circle around and it would be amazing if we can get more opinions on it. Please let me know here if you are willing to share your email, I will send the link right away.

Thanks for the offer, but I'm not very enthusiastic about online debating anymore. One of the reasons I engage on Hacker News is that I try avoid flame wars for the benefit of spectators. It's been even longer since I enjoyed watching other people go low.
Anyway, I prefer text to video as means of expression for reasons I described elsewhere.

The website let's you:
- Challenge a friend or a random stranger.
- Find spectators by advertising your debating room's link.
- Watch live and recorded debates.
- Vote for the side you are.
- Chat and comment on live/recorded debates.
What we care now:
1. Would you find this app useful or useless? why?
2. Would you initiate debate and/or spectate?
3. What else do you like this app to do?
