Free ride from SFO if you test our app

11 points by grishick 14 years ago | 15 comments

We are looking for people who are visiting SF Bay Area in the next 2 months. If you could use a free ride from SFO to anywhere in the SF Bay Area, we would be happy to meet you at the airport and give you a ride. The catch is that while you are riding with us, you will be testing our app (iPhone or Android, your device or ours - whichever you choose). The only requirement is that you must not be a San Francisco resident, because we need to test this app with visitors, rather than with locals. Feel free to refer your friends to us as well. You can contact us at info@citybot.com.

Why don't you just go to Union Square and ask people if they'll test your app in exchange for a free coffee. There are TONS of tourists around there, and a lot of them are just sitting around after a long day on their feet.

Thanks for the advice. I think, we'll do that too. Personally, I don't like when people come up to me in the street and demand attention, but maybe that's just me.

ahh, you gotta get over that. Don't project your personal views on others, there's plenty of people that would enjoy this - I know I would.

If you're going to be successful as a startup, you gotta hustle. I did door-to-door sales one summer and do you know which people turned out to be the nicest? The ones with "No solicitation" signs on their door. I kid you not. Just go and do it.

Cool idea, wish I could take advantage of this. You don't happen to need testing on a flight to San Francisco too? ;)

If you have wifi on the flight, you could test while on the flight.

maybe international? ;)

International or local, anyone who is arriving to SFO and is not a Bay Area resident qualifies.

What's the app?

I suppose this one: http://www.citybot.com/ it looks like an app that allows you to create a customized travel itinerary

Yes, the app is Citybot. It isn't in the app store yet, but we can deliver it via Testflight and as an APK file. The app lets you create custom itineraries in seconds.
