cite

Hi Product Hunt friends! We just released the first version of Cite. An app to help you make your reading recommendations on Twitter visually more pleasing. It's a bit barebone at the moment but we're planing to add different themes and stuff like that soon. I'm here to answer your questions. <3

Execution looks great. Well done! I hope you plan on expanding this to more platforms, rather than just tweets. Imagine a decentralised Genius.com where you can annotate and share any piece of content you come across. Follow people who's world perspective inspire you, discover what they are reading, etc. I worked on this idea years ago, but failed due to lack of experience and perhaps the then lacking interoperability of media consumption software. (This was pre-iPad). I think your current app is a great starting point though. Very simple, but with huge potential. Start small, think big. Next step user profiles? In terms of distribution creating a WordPress plugin for bloggers to use might be an interesting approach as well. A Cite-optimized tweet button could potentially drive more traffic than a regular tweet button.

Neat product. On your website, is there a way to make the embedded tweets fall back to images? Users with adblock won't see them otherwise!
