Building Ping the World and having a 💥

About

I used to post 4 times a week on LinkedIn for months, until I just couldn't make myself open the app anymore. So I started asking myself all those questions — do we always seek to get some kind of reward from online comms? Is there always an agenda? What about just the simplicity of exchange, does it have value in itself? So, meet Ping The World (.app). You send a message anonymously to unknown user, you may receive one answer. And that's it. No profiles, no pictures or links, no cookies. Just one human interaction at a time (with a rigorous moderation system, of course). It's quite fun, actually. I'd really appreciate any type of meaningful feedback!

Anti-social network Ping the World .app - Not a chat. Not a network. Just a kind word.

Ping the World is the first anti-social media platform out there. There are no profiles, no pictures or links, no pressure to be anyone. You just send a kind word to one stranger, anywhere on the planet. It might find them when they need it, and they might write back. That's it. That's the full exchange. Every word on Ping the World is written by a living person, and read by a living person. It's quickly growing and launched as a free beta.

What if... you could make a new product?

What if you could make a completely new product with a snap of your fingers, what would you make? What do you think humanity needs and lacks the most? What would be a product that if it existed it would be like a new mobile phone?
