Some launches or events are more memorable than others (and that's because they know how to differentiate themselves from the rest).

We are not completely at the end, but I can certainly say that the PH launch and event struck with me in the sense of making it memorable.

Exactly one week from now, I ll be co-organising a tech event (a hackathon), and I m realising how much work it actually takes. I ve been to many conferences myself to gather inspiration, but I still can t come close to what I ve experienced as an attendee. Maybe that s also because we re organising it as just a 3-person team.

If you ve been to hackathons or other tech events before, what made a positive impression on you?

I have made a list of platforms where you can create your community and share your knowledge in a closed circle (and in some cases sell memberships).

The list is according to my preferences, so the platforms I use the most are at the top.

For almost 3 or 4 months, there was an idea to create an offline event (Hackathon) where makers could work in a team, network and partially launch a product on Product Hunt (if it is good).

Time is ticking, and I + 2 other guys, are working relentlessly on our first event in the capital city of my country.

Remember when products designed for consumers unexpectedly revolutionized how businesses operate? For example, Discord started as a chat app for gamers but is now essential for remote teams.

Its journey from gaming-focused platform to business tool is fascinating:

• Originally built for gamers needing low-latency communication

• Features like server organization, voice channels, and role permissions were perfect for gaming

• Discord thrived during the pandemic as businesses discovered its community-building strengths worked brilliantly for remote collaboration

• Now powers everything from customer communities to virtual events
