Love the name. Wedgies recently added native tumblr support, giving visitors the opportunity to engage directly in their dashboard. Smart.

@rrhoover Thanks, Ryan! I love seeing comments from Tumblr users that are amazed when their Wedgies polls show up in their dashboard instead of being a grey box. There are also some nice tricks you can use with animated GIFs in a Wedgies poll that make them show up on the Tumblr Dashboard with autoplay.

Just want to make a quick note about how awesome the founders are. I had the chance to speak with them after an event, they were really down to earth. Oh, will one of the founders care to share the story you shared about owning the word "wedgies" online and something about bullies. On a kind of related note, my Wedgies shirt is one of my favorite startup shirts!
Jimmy Jacobson
@KennedysGarage Ha! Thanks! @porterhaney and I have a lot of stories, most of them we reserve to tell over beers in dark bars. We do own both the domain Wedgies.com AND the trademark and have plotted many ways to use both to help end cyber bullying by delivering cease and desist letters to anyone found giving an IRL wedgie and bragging about it. If any hunters travel through Vegas, where we are located, and want to grab a drink or coffee and hear more stories just hit us up on Twitter. https://twitter.com/porterhaney https://twitter.com/jimmyjacobson

Jimmy from Wedgies here. Glad to answer any questions. Including how we scored the domain Wedgies.com. Also happy to hear any feedback the community here has. And as a teaser, here is our next feature that is in soft launch with Twitter. https://twitter.com/wwegames/sta...

@jimmyjacobson this is awesome. I didn't know you could embed polls like this on Twitter. I need to catch up. I bet we could do some creative things with Product Hunt.
Jimmy Jacobson
@rrhoover This is a brand new integration that Wedgies is powering in partnership with Twitter. It's in limited release right now but would love to talk about getting ProductHunt into the beta.
Ryan Hoover
@jimmyjacobson that would be fantastic. I think we can make a great case study. :) cc @buster

@rrhoover hey ryan you can do it with Yopine too...you can also poll a room (or larger) by pinning the poll on the wifi signal (no login required).
