I just downloaded the app. It looks AMAZING! Congrats! The onboarding was smooth. Lots of request to access my data so I appreciate all the info about how you’re capturing as little as possible and privacy policy. Question. How does the app make money for you? I see there are in-app purchases but thus far I haven’t seen anything to purchase in the app. Is it the collectibles?

I think it would be good to investigate why people skip the text testimonials before jumping to the conclusion that is do to format. They might watch videos because visuals are processed faster in the brain than text. On the other hand, I think this idea would be amazing for accessibility! Blind people scanning the page with their keyboard. Could be a nice touch to listen to a real person talk...

I love this concept! Glad founders are building tech that is considerate, easy to use and at a good price! ❤️

Hi @techladyallison. Thank you for doing this! I’m curious to know about the business model. Would you be open to share: How Tech Ladies generates profits to sustain itself today and how the business model has changed since starting out. Were you profitable when you quit your job and focused on the business? I’m building a service for the UX community to find jobs and accelerate their...

I'm happy to share the launch of our new podcast for UX Backstage. The first episode features Ryan Singer from Basecamp talking about what we need from design in a leadership level. A few highlights I appreciated from Ryan: How shaping (design strategy) is different from hands-on design, and the cases where design might not be the competitive advantage of a company. Ryan also replied to...

Hey guys! This is a checklist for product people who need a reminder of each key area of managing/creating a product. I just finished a PM course and I'm looking forward to grasping all of these areas and iterate on this list. Comments are more than welcome! Please feel free to suggest any areas I might have miss.

This is called "Uber Plus". I purchased a pass last month and have been using all August (I'm in DC). The rides cost comes down to the same amount I spend on the metro. I've been using it in rush hour and I love it. It takes longer, but that's because of the traffic and increase in demand. I don't mind, I just read a book. Anything to avoid the metro and the crazy heat that we have in DC now. I...

Omg #justinsburrito! So funny! Great episode Justin. Tiny first steps are the best for building the maker habit!

This is great! I started making my own list and @mijustin took and look at it and helped figured out the next steps. I love this challenge!

I looove Foundation! I've used it since v2. It is a very complete tool that save me, as a designer with basic front-end skills, a lot of time.

I know this falls more into goal-setting and productivity, but I wanted to share my only experience with forming a mastermind group. I made the mistake of scheduling too many things to accomplish in a week, trying to go from 0 to 100 in a week. Thinking back, one of the main things I would do differently is to schedule one actionable thing to accomplish starting out, and how I'm going to...
