Tech Check #7- The so-anonymous feedback tool sayat.me

Social media has evolved a lot from chats in E-mail to Snapchat stories. As evolution took place, our desire to have something new increased. Nowadays, it doesn't matter whether the idea is foolish or not. As long as it's fresh, it trends automatically. Bringing to the table, the latest offering, sayat.me .

What it is?

As the site states, it is an anonymous feedback tool. So the person posting something doesn't have to fear about his identity being revealed.

How it works?

Basically, you sign up on their site. You get a URL, which is sort of your unique ID. That is where people can post their feedback about you. As simple as that.

To me, it seems quite immature. It is like a social experiment. Though you're supposed to get honest feedback, there is no way to say if its not. It becomes more of a juvenile confession page, when a random girl saying that she has a crush on you turns out to be your sneering friend.

What we believe?

An average social media user is like a kid. Every now and then, they need new toys and after a few good uses, the new becomes old. So is the case here. Interaction with people over the virtual world fascinates us so much that we accept anything that is trending without considering whether it is of value.

While the concept is fire today, it wont take time for us to get bored.
