So Marcus and I (and Leif and Adam) are about to launch this publicly tomorrow and I thought some people here would like a sneak peek. It's Oregon only at this point, but I think most of us are in Oregon.

As you might guess I'm very excited about this...

Would love any thoughts, notes, or critical feedback!

It seems to be stuck while I try to take a picture of myself. "Waiting for camera permissions"

I skipped that step, then followed the email link, tried the "take a picture" button again. Still stuck waiting for camera permissions.

Ok, that was in Safari (I'm old school). I tried in Chrome and it worked. One more thing, though - when I updated my profile (added a bio) and clicked "save," nothing seemed to happen. You should probably make it clear to the user that their info has been saved.

But that can come later. Right now...this site looks AMAZING!! Seriously! This is so huge. I can't even believe it.

Yeah, I thought overall it was a good onboarding experience.

flossy_log_lady · October 2015

Yeah, I liked the tone of the messages.

Thanks, this is helpful.

Safari hates us. We're working on it...

Cool! I like a thing you did!

I agree about the profile saving, something should indicate that it's saved!

wow, looks great!!!!!! CONGRATS!

1234 · October 2015

Thanks all. What a great day one. Still feeling excited. :)

YAYYYYY

How is it going, Mike? Updates, please!

1234 · October 2015

It's going really well.

Initial press was great and there is an SEC meeting happening right now that might change everything:

(warning: that is very long and pretty boring)

We had a great little gathering at Publication Studio and hope to do something like that at the Tannery soon.

Any frustrations or critical feedback is welcome as we're working to improve things from the investor side. What information do you want? email me at mike@chroma.fund.

It'd be nice if there could be a section on your site about any potential tax liability of being an investor?

Howdy, Stranger!
