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…

But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself.
