I'm an early product adopter and have been a June Oven (1st Gen) owner since it first hit the market in 2016. From Day 1 it's proven it's worth. At this new price, it is a steal.Before the June, I was the primary cook in our household and within a year my wife and two young kids (10 and 7) were all contributing thanks to the June. It just makes cooking easy and as my kids like to tell guests...

Get the security in place and this could be even more awesome! Great idea.

Maybe I don't "get it", but I think the Snapchat UI/UX sucks vs. Instagram which has always felt easy and intuitive. If Stories is as easy to use I think they'll capture an audience that has either tried and left or ignored Snapchat.

Will probably see a drop in engagement with Collections but this seems like a much better approach and feature.👍🏽

Been an early subscriber to DSC. This was bound to happen. Just our job to keep promoting them to our friends and family!

Vertical is back! Great to see you guys continue to iterate. I'd been moving more and more towards the app with the previous design and this layout and personalization will probably have me coming back to the web.

Love the idea of making this information more accessible. For years, have waited to see medical systems translate medical/lab results in a similar way. For instance, give patients the cholesterol numbers but explain what that means in a real world way that doesn't require a provider explanation or a Google search later.

The day is already coming where a stylist will be Uber'd to us for a cut in an autonomous car with a barber chair in it. The least we can do is have a conversation before he/she is replaced by a robot.

Great problem to solve. Already passed this along to two friends in Sales to take a look. Good luck and definitely second that being able to integrate this into existing CRM systems would be a big benefit.

*Oops. Answered above. Are their plans to open this up as a service like Stripe (api+sdk)? Can imagine governments and other agencies seeing this as a way to reduce friction and provide better service time with this.

Great productivity problem to tackle with limitless audiences. Immediately installed it and got to work on an introduction. Thanks!

As someone who has an interest in learning about a variety of things, I like this pinboard style approach to finding, collecting and sharing information. They build collections around specific topics and you can earn badges for completion. I can see this being helpful for kids and adults.

Ordered. Excited to try this out. Definitely think the site would benefit from a video featuring part of a lesson and maybe some customer success stories of how they applied the teachings.

If Stadium can consolidate the 2nd screen experiences of FB (friends), ESPN (info) and Twitter (writers) I think it'll do well. Looking forward to trying it this weekend.

Tried the product a couple of years back and will give it another look. At the time, I found the concept of sharing "gems" not intuitive and I believe I couldn't give read-view to those who didn't have a paid account. I could be mistaken. You guys have been in this space for awhile now. Do you feel the biggest obstacle to your growth being security fears?

BB-8 is above and beyond my favorite tech gadget of the year. Now I'm hoping for an optional "head" with a built in camera for stills and video.

I actually thought this would be an interesting space for PH to leverage its community. Have ideas vetted and people subscribe to participate because of interest pre-launch.

I can see something like this being a great resource for students looking to pursue a future career in tech and help teachers who are petitioning US states to add computer science as a HS graduation requirement.
