CuratedLA now has Surfboard, a Hacker News style discussion board to enlighten LA-discussions. As a platform, CuratedLA curates a daily feed of news, events, happenings, and LA need-to-knows without showcasing political opinions, or morbid headlines; LA-vibes.
Hi PH:
First and foremost, I would like to thank the Product Hunt community, those digital stewards, and entrepreneurs that continue to inspire me, enabling me to go full-throttle with CuratedLA.
In addition to a new UI/UX experience, I published a Hacker News style discussion board, 'Surfboard.'
Through sites like Product Hunt, newsletter communities, a niche subreddits, I have found both structure and happiness within communities. I believe that, with the help of others willing, we can make Los Angeles a wonderful place to live, in-person, by showcasing positive discussion, good vibes, and positivity with news, happenings, eats and much more.
It is my hope that we can all benefit from CuratedLA, and the positivity and fun that it can bring.
I hope to catch you Surfing,
Wyatt
