Any URL off localweb.is has a geographic boundary of about 2 miles. So you can go to localweb.is/warhammer and post about warhammer, but only others within range can see and reply.
Why on earth would we do this? Because we think the local space fundamentally sucks.. and its too hard to find others in the area with the same interests.. and no one needs yet another app.. and we love the web.
The "front page" of the local web, localweb.is is a list of the urls people have created in the area sorted by activity... basically, whats trending within walking distance.
If you are in SF or Boston, you might see something on the front page, if not, you are likely the first person to view the local web in your 2 mile radius.

Open to all questions/comments. We don't really know what the local web will be, its a bit of an experiment.

We are really nothing like Facebook, and in many ways, the opposite. Id be happy to give you the demo some time. [email protected] or 415-390-6808
I wish there was a gmail plugin that would make the users email publicly accessible, but read only. This would clearly test their "I have nothing to hide" argument.
Parking signs are the worst. This designers improvements are clearer though the type size is much smaller. Sometimes you can only see the parking signs as you are driving by looking for a space. Its not much help if you have to park your car, then read the sign.
I attempted a similar solution using a "universal language for time and date" that I created.
I don't predict what the market wants. I will just audit a site or product to uncover UX/UI or other design/marketing issues before they end up as help tickets.
Well... Tuft and Needle is rediculous name for a mattress company. But congrats to your success. Also, please switch up your renders for actual photos. The renders are quite obvious and feel deceptive.
Can someone please explain what branch is and why it's different? I can't seem to make heads nor tails of it, and the front page video is typical useless marketing material.
