Building products that foster connection, enable education and create more access to opportunities.
Started writing a case study on The Guardian and pattern 9, 'Displaying the usage of a resource provided for free in a quantitative way.'
#reciprocity
Started writing a case study on Reciprocity and Rows.com decision to replace their landing page with the product without a sign in requirement (pattern 23).
#reciprocity
Reviewed 'Reciprocity and Unveiling in Two-Sided Reputation Systems: Evidence from an Experiment on Airbnb' (pubsonline.informs.org/doi/ab…)
#reciprocity
Wrote draft for 3 chapters:
Babbel Free Live Class and Instrumental Value in Reciprocity (Pattern 29), Compliments and Motivational Messages (Pattern 28) and, Duolingo Friend Quests and Combining patterns for a stronger reciprocity effect (Patterns 6, 7, 26).
#reciprocity
Started writing a comparative analysis on Duolingo and Babbel aided by the theoretical framework I designed, Reciprocity Elicitation Patterns (REP) and an additional study to complement the results.
#reciprocity
Designed a diary study to learn more about the impact of REP on user engagement. Starting today, participants will use both Duolingo and Babbel for a week and make a daily submission to Google Forms.
#reciprocity
Updated dashboard to display trends and to only display months there is data for.
#outono
Added styling to profile settings page and added a bio section to the profile
#outono
Started migrating to Typescript
#outono.
Note to self: Never pick Javascript as default for a customer facing product unless there's a very good reason for doing so.
Added skeleton loading to the post section of
#outono
Wondering if there might more effective fetching or caching strategies that would make skeleton loading unnecessary.
Limiting posts displayed in the platform and weekly newsletter. Now only posts made in the last 14 days are shown.
#outono
Added basic metrics to make platform activity more transparent.
Absolute values are not very informative, which makes them bad KPIs. But the usage of metrics is contextual.
This is a tool for community managers and having an overview of community members is important.
#outono
Started building a custom dashboard for
#outono. Might be a bit too early but I HAD to try Shadcn charts ✨
Usually, PostHog by itself is good enough for understanding and visualising user behaviour, but when we're building a tool to enable others to make decisions, it's nice to have the added layer of customisation!
