📹 Tried smth new today! - Live-streaming my UX design session to help & connect with my audience

Today I took the courage and tried something new. I live-streamed while designing my product thinkoutloud.io for 2 hours!

My vision is to become a full-time indieHacker, create practical educational UX content and build my own micro-saas products.
Thinkoutloud.io is the first product I am working on and I decided to build it fully in public and share my insights and process with the community.

Live-streaming is a fun and social way to share what I do, help other indieHacker learn about UX by showing my full-process and to also connect with them on a personal level.

6 peopled watched in total and I got some pretty good questions on the live chat!

Was it scary? Oh yes. A lot.
Did I do mistakes? Yes, a lot of them but the point is I started!
Was it fun? Hell yes.
Will I do it again? Yeap, tomorrow and probably every week on Thursday and Friday.

Check out my first episode and feel free to comment with your thoughts!
I hope you'll find it useful. 🤞

    Stumbled into here and checked out the stream great work. I'm looking to do more youtube videos this year and know how it goes sometimes you have to hit the record/stream button and just go. I didn't have a chance to watch it all, skipped some, but was great to see someone else workflow/process. Loved your callout on solving problems you don't need to solve. As a designer/developer this is critical to spot because this costs/time-and-money.

    Curious at 11:00 min in you switched to your ipad. What app are you writing/sketching in?
