I'm a fan. Then again, i love gambling; then again, quite a few ppl do! :)
I could see this catching on, particularly, in sports circles. Old friends, current friends, etc...Watching sports, and the app being a way to legitimize the casual banter of "i bet...", while facilitating more of it.
I'd push it hard to sports forums/communities, and things like that.
Add in poker and gaming forums...Especially poker forums -- could see the app catching on like wildfire for the "high profile" pros who use Twitter, and the legions of their followers.
Totally in their wheelhouse every which way.
One thing I might add, off the top of my head, would be a way for people/observers...to wager on the wager, so to speak.
True that; you never know what a congressmen will do for attention or money after the money they bilked from another has already run dry.
And I have no clue as to ur exact mode for how you plan to monetize, and the ramification that'll arise off that. But I def believe you when you say you thought of some nifty ways.
Re: poker pros who use Twitter; a lot of their prop bets aren't necessarily financial, and just incredibly humorous and extreme otherwise, though i understand why you'd want to totally steer clear of any potential headaches right now. Idk, though, I'd still bet you could do something there and be as kosher as a Hebrew National.
Really awesome, regardless; ill def follow what happens and give it a go as a user.
Next version sounds perfectly planned. Be sweet to get some "highly" followed people using it till, then unleash v2.0 on their followers/observers. Perhaps Bill Simmons as your inaugural celeb user?
