reply guys

As usual, I was scrolling through my Farcaster feed when I noticed a massive buzz around the new mini-app, "REPLY", by @frontend. 

Loads of people were commenting, liking, and even Dan Romero himself noted the project.

I thought, “Let’s figure out what’s so special about this app and why there’s so much hype around it!”

In a nutshell, this mini-app allows you to ask questions to various public figures on Farcaster for a couple of stables. 
You can ask developers of top Farcaster projects technical questions or even ask them what they ate for breakfast.
The app also features people from other fields: a political expert, a beauty blogger, etc.
I became curious about how viable such an application model truly is, so I decided to conduct a test – what I'm calling a "social experiment." My apologies in advance to all involved parties! You are all really awesome guys!

So, I picked some of the most prominent figures available on the app as of July 4th and asked them various questions.
As expected, Farcaster boasts one of the most responsive communities out there, and everyone gladly replied to me.
Thanks for unwittingly participating in this small experiment; you're all awesome folks: @rish, @phil, @pichi, @brianjckim.

Conclusion: @frontend has built a fantastic product with immense potential. As more people join this application, you'll have the chance to ask absolutely anyone the questions that interest you.
I hope more products like this will appear on Farcaster, you've done a great job @frontend!
P.S: I'm really interested in the answer to the food question @cojo.eth

This says it all.

He proved the core promise of Reply: it's not about who you are, it's about showing you value someone else's time.

He wasn't pitching a deal. He was just curious. And he got replies from the very top.

The ultimate case study. Thank you for this.
