I always thought the best travel planning app was an email that contained links of places to travel to. The email would go into a Word doc or Google Doc and then get printed to share amongst friends. This is a neat evolution of the same behavior (which is something I’ve always struggled w. evaluating companies in this space, esp. as each person travels very differently). Everyone uses the same plain text editor to plan.

Looking forward to trying this out and playing around w. the export feature for Maps.


I'm excited to try.

I started something similar, almost a "Book Club for Podcasts" that stemmed off this Twitter thread (https://twitter.com/daveambrose/status/918124906092597248). We organize discussions in a Google Group but this looks like it's much more automatic than the manual curation piece we use.


hey Dave, send me a link to the group or email it to me dan@echopodcasts.com


Email is bouncing from that address.


Upvoted for fellow Hoya alumni!


This looks really cool (and I'm not a hardcore gamer) but avid Discord user for things like Zwift.

I'm curious: are there other use cases for Guilded outside of online gaming? For instance, on Zwift, you can join certain races and clubs, but it's really messy and happens primarily off their app (often in FB Groups). This seems like a better use case.


I think the concept applies to many domains, but Guilded is 100% focused on online gaming. It's definitely interesting to see Discord gain traction in non-gaming circles, but I'm not planning on venturing there in the forseeable future.


One of the biggest announces is lack of operability w. the previous Apple LED display. I've had to cycle through a few cable dongles at this point to then find out none connect to the LED display.

Instead, I ordered the Dell P2715Q 27" monitor and then purchased a DisplayPort to USC-C cable. It works perfectly and decently priced at $530.


upvoted from a fellow Hoya and esp. grabbing this handle on HN. nicely done!


You should write more about this topic, as you seem to have thought about a lot of vectors in this category for some time.

What's your contact details, BTW?


I'd love to try the product, esp. as a means of facilitating weekly 1:1s we have w. our portfolio founders. Is there a way to get access?


You mean, other than the form on the web site that says "Sign up to get access"?


Dave- happy to see how we can help. Sign up on the homepage or if you have some more specific things you'd like to discuss, you can email me at the email at the bottom of the job posting.


where's the link to your app?


http://racut.com

Currently only available for iOS. The version in the store is a hybrid, we're working on an objective-C build that should be done in the near future.

It's a fun project.


just downloaded. i can't seem to hit "register" for a new user after i fill in my information.


It looks like button is slightly jacked up. Tap the register text. Thanks for the 411.
