@zer0mike this is hilarious! I've been getting some funny looks in the office for chortling. My favorite: "A recent study suggests sleeping naked is good for your health, but it sure makes math class awkward"

@tonysheng Hah! fantastic, really pleased you like it - we're working on a new landing page as the one we have is horrible and people just bounce away. Tell everyone ;)

Interesting. My roommate is a standup comic in SF, I'll pass this along. This kind of mimics what he and his comedian friends do to workshop bit with each other, but adds the constraint of it being one-liners. (Which is better for twitter sharing, so there's probably a great opportunity for virality there). I'll forward it to him and see what he thinks!

@staringispolite Thanks for the comments, we currently see this as a highly social and viral site for anyone who has ever wanted to write jokes / kill time at the moment but we're aware that it has a potential to grow into much more, although a long way off we are looking at adding private sessions for users like your friend to write with each other in private. Plus this works well for users who want to do jokes about their friends etc. We also see this as an opportunity to write jokes with your heroes, I'd love some established comics to come onboard and ask their fans to join in. Let me know what your friend says, always on the look out for suggestions and feedback!

Cool, definitely some potential in there. He generally does bits as opposed to jokes, but I think he could have fun with this. I emailed him, so I'll let you know!

Love this. It's a nice party game generally - in addition to online world. Would be nice to study how funny collaborative jokes are vs individual jokes.

@bermster Yeah we have plans to have private and public areas, where you can make jokes that little bit more personal, were also working on adding leaderboards so that you can see how you rank alongside the funniest people in the world. And trending, trending jokes will come into their own when bit events happen.... lots to do...
