Also, I didn't know about this before launch, but @connor and I might have to change the name. Apparently there's already a thing called "Up Down" by a company called "T Pain" ;)

Hey PH! Funny backstory for this product: This is actually a remake of the first web-app I ever built. The first one still got some usage, but it was pretty terrible, so I decided to re-do it a couple months ago. Then I never shipped it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ That didn't sit well with me, so over the past few days @connor and I have cleaned it up, kicked the tires, and finally got around to shipping! I hope you enjoy :)

@nbashaw Interesting. I also made a similar app when I was first learning Rails. It's always in the back of my mind to get back to it and make it a proper app, but everyone knows how it usually ends. The app is www.survvit.com for those interested. It's probably a bit buggy. I like your take on it.

Really like the concept- but do you need slack for this to work? After I type my initials, it just kicks me back to the homepage?

Terrible horrible no good very bad ideas

@nbashaw how do you get the poll to work in slack? I setup the command, but all I get is the response from slackbot. Do I need to do something on the web first, then go into slack? slackbot [9:52 AM] Only you can see this message http://updwn.co/-JuMm4b4_qEQWKNJ...

@shaanvp Unfortunately it's really tricky to publish a message to a room publicly in Slack :( To share the poll w/ your team, you'll need to just copy and paste the URL and send it to them

I've been wanting something simple like this to send out to users of our SaaS app to find out which features they want next. This is perfect. I'm assuming once I create one, it'll live there forever?

@chrisgscott Yep! It's just a public URL that anyone can use. I have to warn you - we didn't really design for a public-facing use case. Anyone can edit an option's text, or archive an option. But if it's a relatively small group it'll probably work fine.

This looks really cool! When I try to use on my iPhone (safari) I can type a question and my initials but "create poll" takes me back to first page with no link to my poll. Bug? :)
