I've known Ken for many years, and I can say without doubt Churnbuster's exactly what he's great at. I've also followed what Matt/Joelle have done for awhile and think quite highly of the whole team. I'm sure they'll do some great stuff with this product—i'll definitely be referring it to many people in the future!

Always loved Steve Blanks stuff but he can be a little tough to digest, love that this guide's less university course and is simple, to the point and easy to follow for simpletons like myself :)

If there's something I think is valuable and useful I have no issue paying with a tweet—and if you've got a SaaS business this one's more than worth a tweet (even if you think you know your shit it's a great resource to review), and I think the people that read my stream might find it interesting too

The biggest difference is there's no extension to install (not a big deal to most). Also, we're focused on non-designers being able to get their thoughts/likes across easy to designers.

That said, as a designer myself the Scratchpad process is largely based on an existing process I've employed for a while to get things going to show other's in a simple manner what i'm thinking and get early buy in to be able to move forward faster and on my own terms.

It says "Signup and Learn More" now, took a few minutes for the update to propagate

Sorry, as was noted below the CTA was a little misleading, I've updated it since—nothing sinister was meant by it, just trying to gain insight into what people want as we put the finishing touches on the app, you should get an email in the next couple of days to start using it

It's similar yes (and partly what it's based on, i've been doing just that for years), but not everyone has photoshop (or wants to go through the effort of screenshot-ing and organizing their clippings on their hard drive

Ha, I wish I could say I was that fast, although the whole thing's still very much in it's infancy sadly my turnaround time isn't quite that quick!

Odd, send me an email at andrew[at]scratchpad.co and I'd be happy to give you access when we have the tool live in the next day or two

As the designer/developer behind this I promise you plenty is being build, we'll be ready to start inviting people to use it in the next couple of days.

Sorry to have annoyed you, but there's really no better way to gauge interest/insight into what your doing early than this type of approach, it really does work out for the better in the long run.

Sorry, guess some of the release text made it into the beta signup, we'll have a working app ready in the next day or so, if you signup i'll make sure you get first access—promise!
