Looks fun - good video How did you get your initial list of beers/wines/spirits? The guy running http://mixologytech.com seems to be selling a DB of ingredients

@kgdavis We will definitely reach out to them! There are some great databases for beer (@BreweryDB) and wine (@VinTank, Wine.com) but a good spirits / cocktails database has been hard to come by. We started with 0 spirits and our early adopters have added 5000 so far.

@kgdavis And for menu data, we have been using the Locu API. https://dev.locu.com/

Shindig looks like it has a lot of potential. I like that it integrates beer, wine, spirits and cocktails. I understand why users need to follow three profiles before they can actually get into the app, but I'd love to see suggested users based on location, particularly since I don't have any friends on Shindig yet.

@stttories Really good suggestion Tori. Recommendations of local taste experts is on our short-term road map.

@stttories Did you find the requirement to follow three users frustrating? Similar to Twitter, we see better retention when new users follow community members but wondering if you think it's annoying.

In the spirt (drink puns!) of community, my personal phone number is built into the app. If you ever have any booze-infused ideas or feedback, don't hesitate to call. I promise my girlfriend doesn't mind.

A familiar "following" model, hand-selected pictures for popular hashtags, and a relevant loading image; Shindig's got them all!

For anyone curious, we will be moving from heroku + rails + mongodb + redis to sinatra + @Neo4j (a graph database) + custom vps quite soon for speedier everything + awesome drink recommendations!
