Sort of like omegle but with different features.
Did I miss something or is there absolutely nothing to see here (yet)?
OK I'll admit it: I don't really know what "ephemeral" means in this context, and it's apparently your killer feature. You might want to include a cool-looking dictionary definition thing or something on your landing page.
I'm wondering if this will ever have the necessary density of use for any to get any texts at all (except in SOMA). Anyone have any ideas on how they might mitigate this problem?
This sounds like Snapchat tailored for a non-photogenic userbase
would be nice if it explained why texts being ephemeral matters when they're sent to people around me. Otherwise it just sounds like "Hey ephemeral messaging is popular nowadays, and so is location based services, so i will build an ephemeral location based service!"
"Ephemeral Texts" = "SnapChat for Text Messages"
You didn't like the term temporary?
It sounds like a good idea, but it won't be very fun if no one uses it. I imagine having some difficulty explaining "ephemera app" to a wide audience.
I wonder if an anonymous app like that can actually exist? I mean, couldn't it be used for terrorism or to organize riots?
