Stoked, level unlocked. Someone I don't know requested an invite to @pingerdotsocial, logged in and published a Ping. Hoping this is the first step towards Product-market fit. Don't give up.

Quick everyone my twitter is buggy and not working properly. You should all go and try Pinger: an invite-only and respectful social network just for people. I’ll see you there!

Days 16-20 of posting about building Pinger. Trying to reduce the number of features my MVP has. More features, more problems. There is a tension between Minimum and Viable in my MVP. I need to get it in front of peope sooner rather than later.

Day 10 of posting about building Pinger didn’t happen as my family and I were traveling from South Africa to the United Kingdom. Traveling with a baby and a toddler is not for the faint of heart. Rest is very much needed. So here is Day 11 of posting about building Pinger. Some days there will be no progress. It may feel like going backwards. It’s ok. Not every day needs to be a home run.

Does your product have a manifesto? A public declaration of exactly what the problem is and how you’re going to fix it?

Day 4 of posting about Pinger. One of the first things I did before starting to build Pinger was to sit down and write a manifesto. It has gone through a load of iterations but I read it every day and it fuels the building. You can read it below, let me know what you think?
Social media is broken. Remember when social media felt genuine, before algorithms manipulated what we see? Social used to feel like your space (Shout out Tom), where your privacy wasn't invaded. It was a digital home where conversations flowed naturally, uninterrupted by adverts. These days your attention is influenced, monetized and sold to the highest bidder. The tech behemoths that control the space are expensive, bloated and complicated. With every post, like, swipe and doomscroll you now help billionaires earn more profit. Enough is enough. It's time for change. • Introducing Pinger: an invite-only and respectful social network just for people. Simple: Ping what matters in 88 characters or less. Chronological feed: Pings are ordered by when they were published. No secret sorting. No adverts: Pinger is only for real people to Ping and read what matters. Pay once: from $88 to own your Pinger profile and ping forever. No subscription. No deceptive algorithms

The thing is I wasn't in a rush and neither should you be when posting to the internet.

If you ever wanted to see someone type slowly in a screenrecording now is your chance. I was trying not to make any typos.

Day 2 of posting about Pinger. Pinger is all about pinging what matters. Here is a quick demo of me pinging a ping on Pinger.

Here they are: 1. Be kind. 2. Follow the spirit. 3. Assume the best. 4. Respect Everyone. 5. Protect people's privacy. 6. Keep it real and authentic. 7. Share honestly and truthfully. 8. No ads, bots, scams or spam. Does your product have guidelines?

May is here and I need to start sharing more about Pinger and how I'm building it differently. Stealth mode is over. Putting together and refining the Pinger Community Guidelines has been so rewarding.

My MVP checklist for Pinger: • built in a few months ✅ • very limited functionality ✅ • appeals to a small set of users (so far me 😅) ✅ • making sure I don’t get attached to it ❌

Replying to @PLBompard
This month I’ll be building Pinger in Public. Pinger is the social network I’ve always wanted to create. This is a screenshot of the top of the Pings page.

🎙️ Run it back to my favourite post-match interview ever.. Watford’s Ken Sema scored two, including the winner against West Brom and he bravely came out to conduct his interview even though he suffers from a stammer. Inspirational stuff. 🇸🇪❤️

I’m not quite sure how to explain what’s happened tonight, because it’s still happening - but here goes… At 4:40pm I jumped on a train from London to Edinburgh.. It was comfy, it was quiet In hindsight, too good to last…
