Ask Big Questions Social Platform Earns A #StealThis

Ask Big Questions Social Platform Earns A #StealThis | Curation Revolution | Scoop.it
Can we change the world through better conversation? We believe we can. We don't have many opportunities today to develop relationships with people of different backgrounds who may hold different viewpoints.
Martin (Marty) Smith's insight:

#StealThis

I like the immediacy of this platform. You signup with Twitter (or Facebook) and you post. May have to steal this idea for Cure Cancer Starter. Well done, great use of social as simultaneously platform, infrastructure and content. Cool. 

Gets better. When you post they respond with @(your twitter) responses. They just let me know you can use Facebook too and immediately incorporate friends. This is a very cool use of social media tools as platform. There are several valuable lessons here in the use of OPP (Other People's Platforms) including:

* Use scaled platforms so people don't have to repeat on yours.

* Don't make people learn new things use established conventions.

* Make it falling off a log easy to signup and create an account.

* When any says anything, RESPOND.

* RESPOND with real people, heart and soul (no canned junk).

* Be present to the conversations happening and everything works better.

 

Cool idea well done, and, as I said on my Facebook page, bound to be the future of something.
