Update:
Say-So is running smooth, we’ve updated to what is now version 1.4 of the system. This will be the last update about Say-So from this page, from here on out, find Say-So updates and info at the Say-So Blog.

Original Post:
We just launched a free service called Say-So.org, it’s a tool you can use to generate discussions on any topic, concern, question or idea you have. It shares similarities with a lot of different things, such as blogs, event organizing tools, product comparison tools, online polls, etc., but it’s much more free-form. The main focus of the tool (and reason for making it) is to allow anyone to gather feedback on an idea without needing a full fledged blog, and with more control over the “structure” of the responses. When you create a post, you can (optionally) assign up to three response types, for example “Pizza” or “Tacos”. All comments will then fall in either the Pizza or Tacos columns.

We also wanted to make it so that no usernames or passwords need to be remembered, Say-So creation and management happens via a “login-link” that we send via email.

Say-Sos and responses can also be kept completely anonymous, and can be made public or private, public ones can be browsed and searched from the home page, and private ones are only known to those specifically invited. After a Say-So is created, we offer five different ways to let folks know about it. We include help on various forms of emailing Say-So invites, code for posting on websites, and even a print-n-go version of the Say-So that can be pinned to an office or campus bulletin board - includes tear-off URL tabs!

We are excited about this new offering, and even more excited about the planned features to be released. This is something we are doing for fun in our spare time, however we have an organized development environment - so consider this version 1. Please let us know if you have thoughts, ideas, suggestions. If you like what you see, help us spread the word about Say-So.
