Do not sign up for Rippln, it's a piramid scheme (and not the next big thing).

I've been getting invites from friends to sign up at http://www.startmyripple.com/

I couldn't find info on the company or it's team. After some more research I found a post on Yahoo about it. I think this guy did a pretty good job explaining the possible dangers when you sign up:

Be warned.

I received an invite as well. Not signing up for this. You have to sign an NDA and cannot remove your account if you want to. TechCrunch also has a post up: http://techcrunch.com/2013/04/22/what-not-to-do-in-your-star...

I read their home page and still have no idea what the hell they are actually selling or doing.

Check out the Yahoo link I posted. Sums it all up.

Obviously they do appification, gamification, and mobile! Actually I don't know what they do either.

Look at this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wS7-nxxkjS0

I cannot imagine the human being that would watch this video and not have an overload of mental-alarms screaming "scam". I want to meet the people who fall for this. I want to know how they function in society day after day. They must see the world in a way that is beyond my comprehension.
