This document discusses revisions to an MVP for Bottl, a location-based social media app for sharing messages. Feedback indicated that the content and commenting features felt discouraging and bare. The revisions aim to add more social elements like user sharing and curation to incentivize both sharing content and exploring messages. A walkthrough shows how a user might share an interesting doodle she found and have others appreciate and comment on it.

The detail and commenting part feel more like a positive space now.
Share to FB and let friends treasure hunt my stuff is quite exciting.

Will be even more functional if I can curate my personal messages.
