stop reading the news, and start talking about it

Like many of you, I am on hackernews all day long! This is a hack I put together to meet other people on HN

I built this website because I work from home, and I wanted to actually meet the people on HN and discuss articles and build my network of relationships.

Here, conversations are audio only, so they don't feel like a zoom meeting. You get to have one on one time with a bunch of people, so it doesn't feel like you are just sitting and watching someone talk. You will be connected with a random person in the group; when your conversation is done, just hit next to move on to your next new contact.

The app will ask you to login, and will ask for permission to access your microphone.

How does it work?

Be your best self! People are here for networking, and it's important you make a good impression. When you join a call, you will be connected with a random person in the group. People are here to do professional networking, so have at it.

How do I start?

To get started, press the big phone button to make a call.

Can I describe myself?

Sure, describe your professional interests in a few words in the 'profession' section. That way, you won't have to reintroduce yourself each time. You can share your linked in information as well!

How do I end a call?

When your conversation is done, just hit next to move on to your next new contact. You can always walk away and on to the next new person. It's not rude to leave too early. Think of it like excusing yourself to meet new people at a large in person event.

What is the party?

Near the end of the event, there is a Google Meets party that will open up. You can join it and get a chance to see the faces of everyone who was here.

Troubleshooting

If no one is connecting, just be patient, it's possible you are the only person in the room.
