Full Disclosure
After my friend Dana who is a genius told me that I had to stop being a retard and give in to the Facebooks, I spent a few hours and created a Facebook Apps version of Iwtst. It lives, appropriately, on Facebook. It will tell your friends what movies you want to see, and tell you what movies your friends want to see. That is all it was ever supposed to do, and now it does it with all your existing Facebook friends.
Let me tell you, I would much rather have been able to build Facebook into Iwtst, allowing people to see their Facebook friends inside my website instead of vice-versa. I look forward to the day when that is possible. I still feel very strongly that being forced to play in someone’s sandbox is a bad thing. But I’ve got to admit that the adoption rate of Iwtst on Facebook has been about 10 times that of the new signup rate on Iwtst.com.
God Damn It!
Obviously, the jury is still out on whether or not these members will be good members. Will they actually use the app, or am I just seeing new signups because people have to add the application just to see what it is? We’ll see! I’ll keep you posted.
