I dig the mysterious branding. Although it probably terrible for a mainstream market, I think it will work well with an early adopter crowd. Ping is another example of a lightweight, notification-driven app. Download the app and "subscribe" to different types of notifications such as popular apps to download, new movies, or even tweets from @kanyewest. I see many similarities to where @orarbel is taking Yo (from what I've gathered). Here's my first ping: Is this just an experiment, @davidbyttow / @chrysb? Obviously you're busy with Secret so what are the goals here?

@rrhoover Simplicity and mystery. Ping evolves. Those who decide to let Ping live on their phone will be surprised and delighted.
Danny Espinoza
@davidbyttow so should we read anything into how things are going with Secret with this release or is this just a N-O-R-T-H-like experiment?

This had the perfect amount of mysteriousness for me to actually get the app without knowing anything about it.
Juan Buis
@graham_earley Exactly. Now I'm hoping for it to be actually useful.

love the transitions. hope this encourages more apps to rethink their approach

@msg Agree. Desktop app metaphors have no place on mobile devices. They're too personal.
Ramy
@msg Agreed, it's a slick app. I'm guessing people will copy the transition style if Ping gets traction.

Do you use Ping?
