Before we publicly launched
Beeminder
in 2011 we committed to deploying and tweeting one
User-Visible Improvement
to Beeminder per day.
We diligently maintained our average —
enforced by Beeminder
— for over 2 years before we
messed up and had to pay
one of our users $1000.
Despite the one derailment, we've continued uninterrupted for
[calculating...] days
and counting...
(PS: If you're us you can
toggle the notes-to-selves
or put ?shownotes=1
in the URL. Also many of the GitHub links only work if you're us but anyone can see additional info by hovering over them.)
