I am working on ReadBoard (https://www.readboard.io) - a new way to converse on the Web. And why do I think it is awesome? Because I believe it will really change the way we converse on the Web.

I recently posted three different articles on medium explaining my thought process but I would like to mention one article here.

To summarise, ReadBoard lets you (the readers) own your conversations on the Web.

And when I say “owning a conversation”, that means…

1. I, as a reader, will decide on which part of the article I want to start a conversation and with whom. 2. I, as a reader, want all my conversations at one place. 3. I, as a reader, want to know what others are discussing on the same article.

ReadBoard is still in private beta but if this thinking intrigues you, here is a special link to sign up for all HackerNews users.

Following video (< 4 mins) explains What is ReadBoard and Why we created it?

I would really appreciate your thoughts on this. You can help me build a better product or stop me from making a product, which nobody wants!
