IDEA: Provide information about free/cheap entertainment near the user.
POSITIVES:
- Everyone likes free things.
- Save money.
- Keep yourself busy.
- Get more familiar with your area.
- Get familiar with a new area.
- Promotion opportunities (businesses, local economy growth)
NEGATIVES:
- User trust.
- Creation logistics
- Attract to many people to a certain free option.
- Quality of product.
- Take advantage of suppliers (exploitation).
INTRIGUING:
- Free stuff.
- Community building.
- Making new friends/connections.
- Social networking options (Facebook places/ Foursquare).
- Making lists of what to try.
- What’s nearby you that may have been hidden?
- Limiting who can see the free options by how close they are to it.
- User submissions.
- New things everyday.
CONCERNING:
- What happens if you run out of free options?
- What happens if the option available runs out before you get there?
- User submission reviews (bad options need to be cut).
- Free stuff advertised that was never meant to be free (i.e. open bars).
- What if there isn’t new stuff every day? Or repetitions.
- Business plan, feasible way to make money, give it away or charge?
