I have a great idea for a thread about Upstart, but in order to succeed, I'm going to need a great title.

Any experienced posters want to give me some tips on how to design a good title? Or just want to donate some 5's to help me get my thread off the ground?

i think the idea is more that physical location is completely irrelevant to an "online platform" so why kenya specifically

i understand that kenya is an emerging market in a lot of ways but it seems like its a really narrow scope for a project that will require a shitload of infrastructure

throw in something vaguely humanitarian sounding to make the whole venture seem more attractive, no doubt

they do a lot of running in kenya so there's definitely a need for some sort of streaming app with run logs etc

in that case wouldn't the operative qualifier be "for" kenya instead of "in" kenya?

eh gently caress it

Do not engage. Just tell me to go back to Kiwi Farms where I waste days upon days crying about how I wasted years upon years on SA. Did you know I was personally responsible for SA's rise in popularity in the 00's? It's true! Just come to the Farms and find out how! It's the trash kingdom I deserve.
