It will probably be cool if you let users be able to customize the reward for inviting folks. For example, if I'm launching an app, it doesn't matter if you're number 1 on list or 1,000. Everyone will still be downloading at the same time when the app is released. Perhaps some users will want to customize such that when you invite 20 friends, you get x, when they sign up, you get y.

Good concept though.

Found that 6.5 hours is perfect for me. I sleep at like midnight and snore my way to 6:30am when my alarm goes off. In that 6.5hr period, I don't wake up at all. I then go to the gym for about and hour and listen to music just doing nothing for 15-30mins before I start planning for work.

Our approach is to also give you a livefeed of what people in your network are getting as gifts, when we built this feature we thought of people who could use a bit of a "suggestion" of what they may want. So hopefully by looking through your feed and "browsing" other people's gift ideas you'll find inspiration for what you want.

We don't want to make you feel like it's a registry that takes away from the experiece. I just have found that most people return or re-sell gifts they get not because they are in need of cash (only a small subset do), most do because they don't need or like what they got. So the point of giftsocial is to give the people around you an idea of what you want. There really aren't any restrictions to.

When applicants receive the jobs in their inbox, when they click on the job to apply...they are asked a number of questions including being grad/undergrad, if they have github profile (for those applying for engineering jobs) and many more.

But we do have a great mix of backgrounds..about 30% marketing and the rest are engineering and design.
