Wow, this is really going to change the world. YC S12 is probably the best class out of YC so far. A mobile app that allows me to send a postcard to my mom...genius!!! A billion dollar company in the making.
It's sarcasm. Billion dollar company or not, doesn't matter to me and most people out there. It's useful and something people will like. It's perfect for me at least to make my Mum happy from time to time so you'll see me using this!
Contemporary start up culture seems to be in favor of launching with a "minimum viable product" as a way of gauging market demand before you sink too many resources into a product.
Not every product is amenable to this, of course, but HiMom is and you are seeing it in action.
