Map Buddy Product Retrospective

Map Buddy (formerly Radar Chat) is an Android / iOS / mobile web app that I built. The easiest way to describe it is being "Reddit where every post is associated with a physical location." While the product did have two paying customers and over a hundred users it was never able to achieve product market fit. The app is currently available but I am entertaining offers to purchase it, and if that falls through, I'll probably close it down completely and release the source code as open source.

Assuming it's still running you can view Map Buddy here: MapBuddy.app
