Mesh

@rrhoover Completely agreed. Especially in our case as we apply big data goodness in finding you your matches. Fortunately, we're already off to a good start though as we already have about 2000 active members mostly focused in NY from our 8 week closed pre-beta. Now moving into beta we're adding a good number of users daily. We hope to already have a pretty active base before the mobile app is released which should help us grow at a more rapid clip. We've also been pretty active on our blog and social media and have a few other creative ideas in the works.

@rrhoover Can we get a collection of "products that have beat network effects" ? Though perhaps it's too short of a list. So hard to know whether it is possible to attack the "critical mass" problem directly or if it is just a function of everything else about the product, marketing, users themselves. Part of why I love reading PH. @asherraph - I really like the way you all have cast this as a more sophisticated tool for online dating. I think you really benefit from things like Tinder warming everyone up (no pun intended) to online dating, and now it may be time for some people to use a more serious tool to find a more serious relationship.

@basche42 Thanks. We feel Mesh's goal is to help you experience better in whatever it is you're looking for. Obviously, the tools lend itself to those seeking relationships, but we've also taken pains to ensure that even if you're looking for something casual, you still get that better, more positive experience.

@asherraph awesome. my advice would be wherever possible, make it playful :-D
