In Bulletin 11, I asked readers a couple of questions to figure out how to grow the audience for Kinopio

How I Build | Hacker News

def students. as a student, I use it regularly for taking lecture notes and writing papers

allow commenting/adding cards without signing up

feature

notes: - notion was already really popular with 1000s of people before camille came on as head of marketing - from there she took it even farther (not exactly where I’m at currently)

although, not sure if i agree if this is even the right attitude to have. maybe it’s time to change this.

“a really sick way to map out and connect your thoughts VISUALLY”

“good for artists, designers who need to create mood boards”

“my peers might appreciate something like this because it is both functional AND fun”

May 31, 2020 waxy link had a link to it, in which he described Kinopio as: “like if Are.na and a modular synth had a baby”

I’ve got lots of other gifs up at https://www.are.na/kinopio/kinopio-design :)

How did you find Kinopio?

embeds

feature

shu omi

I imagine, given the fun, interactivity, and embedable media on Kinopio, you could create some exciting videos/gifs both illustrating the tool and different ideas/concepts in a social media friendly way. Even better if Kinopio could do that out of the box!

maybe students

Good making a dot collector like ray Dalio’s principals describes

Are.na

Who is it not good for?

Since then I’ve gotten so many helpful responses

Post-its and crayons on the web

“a “Mapping tool” for my thoughts”

https://club.kinopio.club/t/gamification-features-to-keep-user-intact/479

+1, $/referred-user

“Not good for software architects looking to create UML graphs ”

indie web site (eg elliot’s stuff)

not sure I would use for lecture notes but jotting thoughts, mapping ideas etc. - awesome

“my product management colleagues at work. Their world view is - sadly - restricted to Microsoft tools. I managed to get Miro into the mix and some of them love it. The few times I used Kinopio on them they frowned upon its playfulness (which I love)”

mind-mapping

Substack

will check out thx

multi-dimensional notes

easy to get your thoughts out and organize them, making connections

moodboard makers/scrapbookers

You can try betalist maybe

Need feedback from people who Aren’t using it

r/mindmapping

twitter promoted tweets, targeted to creative circles, and pkm/productivity circles

Promote in creative websites + Discords. Create a list of places to promote and share away!

have been a lurker for a while now but am now fully invested. i think what brought me over the edge was discovering that the 🕶 on the bottom left was a rabbit hole into other spaces - this crosses kinopio into tumblr-like territory for note taking which is a feature in and of itself.

this sounds fun, feels a little like what the FL meetups have been like

Space walkthrough (virtual) meetups

help needed

Channel Walkthrough this Friday! RSVP here:

maybe a general landing page that is not a kinopio space would be more inviting and get people interested. it could have short videos, some additional copy for getting started. I know using kinopio itself is elegant/meta but can also be off-putting to folks just curious?

+1 a landing page/dashboard of curated Explore spaces.

The only gif I could find lolz

a more visually interesting Explore, more guided curation with a url I can point new users to

“explore spaces referencing current events, eg “how i’m going to beat floyd mayweather” board by logan paul.”

asked “how do we bring in the enthusiasts, get them closer to the company”

ok lets do it, I’ll figure it out and send you some deets later today!

she paved the cowpaths around ppls existing passions, with stuff like superuser programs and meetups which is awesome

how are renewals different? the main teacher feedback I’ve gotten is the need to allow invited users to edit spaces without an account

“tiktok is a weird place BUT a ton of fun niche-y tools have gained a lot of traction from there.. sometimes people get featured outta nowhere and their projects blow up”

I’m willing to moderate 👋🏻

educators / classroom discount - the issue with subscriptions is UK Universities struggle - software annual renewal slightly different

i like the idea of embedding from other tools to get to kinopio.

″discord server for members to interact more with each other (and you) with less fRicTioN than email/forum seems to have AND can make this whole experience feel that much more personal and fun”

“Have you tried to attract teachers as evangelists”

how would this work? what data specifically would you like to sync? could you use an space rss feed for this?

evangelism programs/portal (eg notion)

user pages

more sharable spaces

this!

arduous to get approved by enterprise (security, privacy)

How should I promote Kinopio?
