I made a poll site with no features

Hacker News

The site: http://yourcall.io/ Many of you have probably heard of Basecamp's mantra "build less"[0]. This idea really spoke to me, and I wanted to put it into practice. I'd been kicking around an idea for a site that lets you ask your friends questions of the type "should I X or Y?" and let them help you decide, so I started building it with Basecamp's words in mind, while learning some new technologies in the process (the MEAN stack). The result is the simplest poll site that I think could possibly work. It has less features, less options and preferences, less everything than every other site out there. I built it quickly and I'm shipping early. I'd love to hear any feedback you guys might have. [0] https://gettingreal.37signals.com/ch02_Build_Less.php
