If you're thinking of building an app, for the love of god spend the money on a designer. It will help make you look like less of a joke.
Let's just say it's not aged well.
"Ask questions out of curiosity. Don't cross-examine." -N/A
"Instead of "you're doing it wrong", suggest alternatives. When someone is learning, help them learn more." -My suggestion was to hire a designer, which I hope they follow. However good an app is, without good design a lot of people won't take it seriously or consider it a professional product. This especially applies to non tech people, which is most people.
"When something isn't good, you needn't pretend that it is. But don't be gratuitously negative." It's not like I called it a piece of crap. The app may be fine. But at the same time I'm going to call a spade a spade. The current design makes it look extremely dated.
I would still recommend Doodle if anyone is still looking for an option in this field: http://doodle.com/
This project has been up since 2011 (check their blog), so I thought they must have known about Doodle already, and can solicit further feedback on why someone may prefer another project than theirs.
Regardless, I think it is always worth mentioning competitors and related projects, either for the creator to get ideas from or to see how they can work to differentiate themselves.
That it worked by dedicated URL was not obvious because the text is small.
For sure there are loads of alternatives, this hopefully strips it down to the basics. Think a semi-private, shared calendar amoungst friends.
Arrange an imrompTU, accurately-timed meeting at arbitrary GPS coordinates, whereby the participants will all converge and crash into each other due to staring down at their mobile devices.
