It will start as a curated program. But my hope is to make it evolve to be both. A place to get knowledge, inspiration and motivation. And then a place to get help and support making your own thing when you're ready.
I think then that the name is a little disingenuous. "Club" connotes a community, but not a directed program of study with a supervising teacher. The first half of the website, everything up until "Learning for all types of learners," describes an awesome community idea. Your product screenshot is a re-skinned Discourse forum.
But you swerve into this sort-of class format so we can "build our resumes" to be like Twitter employees, and you're looking for $30/mo for it? This seems like less collaborative community, and more a carefully branded training course from http://classes.codedinc.com/.
Not at all what I had in mind. I want this to be a community and not a course.
But to get there we have to start somewhere. And I know people can bond and form a community better if they work on similar problems, thus the projects.
Thanks for the reply. For my part I could be really interested in a walled garden community format (i.e. I get the charging part as long as you use the funds to provide value back to the community), but am less interested in curated projects.
In any case, I've jot it down on my "follow up" list for when I have some more free time. Good luck!
