who the hell cares?


movement. me + you.will this work for fitness? Twitter?


history

• @jensmccabe uses #getupandmove to post YouTube music videos, detailing ‘dance breaks’ during workday

• @shazow & @jensmccabe whiteboard app at Super Happy Dev House (November 2009)

• 2 weeks later (Black Friday) getupandmove.me launches


I = initiator (user 1)R = respondent (user 2)


u1*a*T + u2*a*T = GUAM challenge


the app

• ‘real time,’ free, web first

• use Twitter - make challenge default private (DM)

• ‘microfitness’ = tiny commitment of time

• no equipment necessary

• 1:1 challenges


what happened next?


almost nothing we expected


the app part deux

• reminders, calendar, do later, export data

• use Twitter - make challenge default private (DM), but give us public option (original and reminders)

• ‘micro+macro fitness’ = let user choose time constraint

• let users set activities; may need equipment

• 1:1 challenges --> 1: group --> team:team

• unsilo data = let “guammies” OWN raw data
