24 alternatives to Our Bikes, building a web-based advocacy group for bike share
Hey folks, A friend and I built a bike share advocacy group called "Our Bikes" in SF because the local providers (JUMP and Ford GoBike) were facing resistance expanding (https://bit.ly/2vQ4MX0). Check it out: https://ourbikes.org Source code: https://github.com/bradwilliford/ourbikes On the tech side, we found change.org and other petition sites to be a headache. In many cases, they won't let you directly have the emails of your supporters. Plus, we wanted to customize everything. So I bought a domain name, built the site, shared on Twitter, and…

A few days ago, I responded to a comment by bloggergirl offering to read anyone's web copy and help. I shot off an email hoping for a paragraph or two of feedback on my startup's copy. Instead I received a professional, detailed deck of tons of invaluable well thought out feedback. It must have taken her an entire afternoon. Here's a link to it: http://www.slideshare.net/shereefb/recommendations-for-bettermeans To top it off, this isn't someone with a lot of free time on her hands, she's only days away from launching her own startup (page99test) This community blows my mind!

This post shows and explains the design of the eBike I built myself. I decided to post it on this specific forum because this is where it all started, by stumbling on another post, as mentioned in my entry.

Hey HN, As noted in a previous comment posted on the "Paris Will Become ‘100% Cyclable’" thread [0], I've been contributing to a project (as a volunteer backend developer) to try to accelerate urban change around pedestrian/cyclable/car-free streets. It's "change.org for urban transformation". It started with a Twitter account posting Dall-E-ified versions of streets [1] which picked up steam in the press [2]. And now, we're live with our own site! Happy to answers questions, and other folks from the project might chime in as well. [0]…

Hey folks! A bit of background: I'm a software engineer by trade, but I'm currently on sabbatical doing a year-long working holiday in Australia. I love riding bikes but only had the most beginner-level knowledge of them before I found a job at a bike shop. This was a fun personal project to try to capture some of what I've learned so far, targeted at fellow beginners. It's going to be incomplete/lacking if you already have some bike knowledge, but I hope you all enjoyed it all the same. Please keep the feedback coming; it's late in Australia, but I want to make sure the bike info is at…

TLDR: I made a community where you can find builders or product owners to collab on sideprojects together with <3 A year ago i completed my first sideproject, a digital course on how to "cold email a chief information security officer". I thought and think its a great course, but of course I fell into all the traps (didnt verify a need, i thought id make it and everyone would buy automatically), i tested google ads but hated nerding on that, so i decided to find a marketing person to partner up with! But i knew no one! That got me thinking how many people with relevant knowledge that isnt…
