Simply Local - Hyperlocal social network with channels, area-broadcast | Product...

Hi everyone,

We have been working on Simply Local for a while now. At this point it's a powerful tool with a whole slew of features needed for it to become a legitimate product in every neighborhood around the world. Read on...

Simply Local connects people living around each other. The structure of the app is similar to slack but for the neighborhood-area. Here each neighborhood has different channels (topics) that one can join or leave and post in. Whatever is posted shows to others in the area who have subscribed to that channel. Try it... it works really well.

In addition SL has a community badges feature where various prompts help in starting the conversation in the area. Badges help build your profile as well as connect each other for specific reasons such as hobbies, and buying and selling stuff.

Simply Local is perfect to broadcast fun or important things to the local area. It works similar to an FM broadcasting system for the neighborhood except everybody in the area can broadcast. In that way it definitely moves the pointer towards decentralized democracy and decentralized communities.

Until now we have focused on making the experience for users as good as possible. That means ensuring there are no major bugs and that the app works fast. I look forward to reading your comments and getting your support. :-)
