Technology at the service of more human connection, not less. That's all we need.
Pros:Love surprises, the caring and especially the AND and not OR : no more fight upon the flawed principle that there can be only one thing done
Cons:Well I guess it's in the plans but the more support we can have on actual execution of the ideas the better !
Really excited to see it out of beta and curious to see how they plan to monetise it!
Pros:- Had my Superdays last year. So many exciting things within one weekend! Truly rewarding :) - Really liked the summary to share at the end
Cons:- Managing a full calendar can be a bit tricky at times. - Works best if you do some explaining to your friends before sharing the link
I used the older version of Superdays where I asked my friends to add something to my calendar, without gifting it to anyone.
Pros:I love the idea of the app! It's amazing how powerful a single day can be and how much fun you can have doing things you normally don't do.
Cons:I tried an early version, where some user flows and copy were a bit confusing. Some of my friends did not get what they were supposed to do.
I believe the best of Superday's is that you can gift moments. If you get creative with the ideas you can make a truly memorable day.
Pros:Being part of a Special Moment for someone you love, even though you aren't physically there.
Cons:Your friends need to really know you well, so they don't come up with an idea that you totally hate. :p
The Least Dangerous To-Do List
When superdays was still in private beta, I did an entire superweek. Yes, 8 days, 10 hours a day, completely filled with whatever my friends thought I should do. It was one of the most overwhelming, exciting, giddy, nerve-wracking weeks of my life. I discovered hidden libraries, went indoor skydiving, camped under a starlit sky to watch a meteor shower, wrote a letter to my favourite author, and hung out more with friends than I did in the half year before that. I wouldn't necessarily recommend an entire week of outsourced life to everyone, but I can guarantee that a single day will be the most surprising and genuine present you'll ever receive :)
Pros:How often are you trying to find a present for someone who has everything & doesn't need anything? Superdays fixes that.
Cons:You need friends who are creative and will show up for each other to make this work. Then again, those are the only friends worth having.
