0:00-3:00 Welcome everyone to the first TWiST Santiago, Chile meetup!
3:00-5:15 With us today is Jose Caballer, host of This Week in Web Design.
5:15-6:00 Thank you to Hiscox for sponsoring the show. Let's take a look at the trailer for their web series Leap Year.
6:00-8:00 Trailer for Leap Year.
8:00-11:00 Welcome to James Kennedy, the TWiST Chile meetup organizer.
11:00-11:30 Breaking news: Paris Hilton has joined Google+. (http://launch.is/blog/paris-hilton-joins-google-24-days-after-launch-twitter-after.html)
11:30-12:30 Natalia from safe-search company Zuggi does the first pitch. See the product at Zuggi.com.
12:30-14:00 Jose rates the Zuggi presentation at an 8 and the idea at an 8.
14:00-16:00 Jason rates the pitch at a 7 and the idea at an 8. For the pitch, it would be good to give an example.
16:00-17:00 Next up is Challenge.in. Go to ChallengeIn.com to learn more.
17:00-18:45 Jason: I think it's a bad pitch because you were too concerned with selling the brand and not enough with the virtue of the product.
18:45-20:00 Jose, could you tell what the product was? (Jose gives the pitch a five.)
20:00-21:15 How much would it cost to re-do this website?
21:15-21:30 Was that too brutal? Well done Claudio.
21:30-26:00 Thank you to GoToMeeting for sponsoring the show.
26:00-28:00 Yifan presents Gym-Pact. Go to gym-pact.com to learn more.
28:00-30:00 Jose: I think the pitch was clear and I think this is a real problem, getting motivated to go to the gym. I give the pitch a 7 and the idea is a solid 8.
30:00-31:00 It seems as though you need to unpack this idea a little bit more. Does the money from the people who didn't go to the gym go to the people who did go to the gym?
31:00-32:00 Can you explain this more clearly?
32:00-32:30 What's the normal rate at which people keep their gym commitments?
32:30-33:00 Jason: Always go with a real, user scenario. I think the idea is either a 10 or a 2, which I like.
33:00-33:45 How does this scale? Do you see people doing it with friends?
33:45-35:00 Are there any regulations around this in terms of considering it gambling?
35:00-36:15 Yifan walks through the Gym-Pact website.
36:15-37:15 Is your client really the gym here?
37:15-37:45 What if the person isn't motivated by money?
37:45-39:15 Let's get the design and the pitch as good as the press you've gotten. And you have to get rid of the dash in the name.
39:15-40:00 Is the financial drive of working out bigger than the social drive?
40:00-40:30 Jose: I would use this if it was simple, if the design on my iPhone looked great and was super fluid.
40:30-41:30 Have you experimented doing it one-on-one between friends?
41:30-42:00 Have you determined who responds to this idea between men and women?
42:00-42:30 How do you incorporate real, high-stakes gambling?
42:30-43:00 Well done, let's hear it for Gym Pact. That's all the time we have for today.
43:00-43:15 How many people came to the meetup tonight, James?
43:15-43:30 Thank you everyone--Hiscox and GoToMeeting--we'll see you next time.
