This is a really cool concept. I feel there is something to this idea of 'drops', but hard to describe. It is like a delivered time capsule.
I like the use case of people making a prediction 'drop', then have it show right after a specific time. That and possibly long messages to be opened on a significant date or time.
Definitely need to work on putting a value prop up and letting people know what they could possibly do with the app.
Looks great, but you should definitely describe the purpose of the service on the front page. I had to dig around in the footer to find the 'about' page for details....
You make a "Drop" with a message, a title, and a future timestamp. Before the reveal time, anyone can see the title. Once the time you specified is reached, the message will be revealed to everyone.
All password protected drop has a little 'lock' icon on the top. Well, I'll try my best to keep the service running as long as possible. But I agree with you, it requires a lot of works to keep any services running in a long run.
It depends, there are 2 types of drop - public and private. Public drop will be available to everyone. Private drop is always password protected. 'Quick drop'(non logged in user) is consider as a private drop. You can only create a public drop once you created an account. :)
Timedrip lets you send timed message to public or friends, you set your own 'showtime', and your message can only be revealed on that time, a countdown timer will be displayed before your showtime.
