Love the name, mostly because:

Neat idea, @elan_miller. Is this just a side project to Glimpse? If so, what if it takes off? I wrote some thoughts about startup side projects about a year ago.

Hello Everyone! Today we’re excited to share FaceOff, a fun experiment to help you find your best selfie. We all have *that friend* who thinks their selfie game is on point, yet their ridiculous kissy-face doesn’t seem to deliver. Profile pictures are an important first impression on the Internet, so we built a playful tool to help you find the best “front cover” for your story. While the concept sounds silly, a better profile pic can help you get more matches on dating apps or even more leads on job sites like LinkedIn. Funny story: The idea for FaceOff was born from a bug while our team was building Glimpse (dating for Instagram). We saw users changing their profile pics until they started getting more messages, so we thought it would be fun to build a tool to automate this behavior. Look forward to your feedback!

Great idea! Do you guys plan on ever adding a possibility of more than just photos to help folks decide which photos are best for their dating profiles etc?

@henkholveck for now we've just been focusing on selfies/profile pictures. We personally feel it something that a lot ppl care about or want to know about with and without the dating context. There's definitely some more areas to explore with this kind of a light weight format/ux and where keen to explore a few.

@rrhoover @elan_miller side projects also build chemistry between teams in the same company. Cool idea, how do you beat the chicken and egg dilemma Elan?

@warrenalfred no doubt - it's been really fun working on something new for a couple of weeks. we actually don't have a chicken & egg problem here since location isn't involved. simply post two selfies - vote on other profiles (warning: it's addicting) - and come back to see which selfie the community thinks best represents you.

Great job on this. I just signed-up, quick and easy. I also like that you pull in pictures from FB to make getting started easy. It is TOTALLY something I could see mindlessly going through - voting on strangers profile pictures. :-)
