Reminds me of Pocket, in that it lets me create my own personal "library" and offload things from my memory to something that's effortless to 'remember' and will last forever.
Added to my collection The Collections Collection :)
We set up a @ProductHunt account on @TheListApp and made 3 book collections to start!
Did it all from iPhone, took about 10min (images and all) was super intuitive to use. Really impressed with how well the app is designed. You should also check out @devwastaken & @bjnovak's episode on Recode Decode that's all about the app.

@nivo0o0 less about the app, but I really enjoyed @bjnovak's episode of the Tim Ferriss podcast: http://fourhourworkweek.com/2015...
@TheListApp now supports GIFs! We made a list of 5 All-Purpose Cat GIFs :)

See how it was made in this video:
At the outcome looks like this!
Nice work by @devwastaken, @bjnovak, and the team 👏👏

With publications, this feels like an RSS/Twitter hybrid. Also @bjnovak can we get audio embeds? Example: https://li.st/l/cc55b3a9-7ec6-4e...
@bjnovak Well done. I'm curious why you are so passionate about lists. What moved you to build this app and community?
@ecwilson I just love 'em. I'm always asking people for lists of favorite restaurants in certain cities, or documentaries on Netflix that are good, and originally wanted a place where people could request and share those types of lists with friends. There's still a lot of that. But we've also discovered what I think we all knew deep down - that lists are addictive, because they're the way our brains naturally order things anyway. It enables substance way easier than other forms of writing because it is often the connective tissue that gets in the way
Seems very akin to what Wunderlist tried with the ability to share public lists. Obviously you can't "complete" these lists though.
@j_hnshin Seriously! BJ and co. really nailed a lot of the trickier (and non-obvious) parts of launching an app. Really impressed.
I remember Devin scoping out this project almost two years ago- glad to see that this has finally come to fruition! Congrats @bjnovak
Looks awesome. @bjnovak - What would be your "taxonomy of lists" if you were to break them into categories? Todo Lists, Listicals, Idea lists, etc. - https://li.st/l/9cf243be-760d-49...
I just added this to my Collection (or is it a list) of List-Making Apps - https://www.producthunt.com/@jfi...
@jfilcik this is for anything and everything - we wanted it to be the simplest form possible to enable creativity. That said, expressive lists is the center of everything so far. For some people, that's recommendations; for many others, it's lists of thoughts, memories, photos. Thanks for asking
@jfilcik @bjnovak if you want to create personal and collaborative favorites lists / recommendations then check out http://bestio.co
Lena Dunham was on Kara Swisher's Re/Code Decode podcast (https://www.producthunt.com/podc...) a few weeks back and was saying how awesome The List App is and how much she loves it! 💁 @bjnovak really rocked it 👊
