Comment on Send packages via social networks (without disclosing recipient address)

Comments

Kinda scratching my head. It's definitely a well done site and app. Problem is, there is no problem here. I'm not going to ship you a package to your @twittername address. The few times a year I send someone something via mail, I'm going to want it to be over and done with. I don't want to have to wait for you to respond to a tweet (which 90% of the people I know don't regularly use or ever will).

I agree with you. This sounds rather cumbersome to my head versus just asking for an address and sending the package.

To the other reply saying this isn't solving a problem but making something more convenient, I disagree. If it did make something more significantly convenient to me, it would be solving a problem. This one isn't.

It's not solving a problem, it's making the solution more convenient.
