Showcase is an Amazing Platform

As a software engineer, it's been incredibly frustrating using networks where connections are meaningless, content is focused on self-promotion, messages become spam, and community is built top-down, instead of bottom-up. It deteriorates the user experience, and worse, it kills the value of the network. 

It lets you find people passionate about your space. Or stay informed about the latest in the industry. Or join communities on topics you're curious about. Even find new opportunities across the globe. That's what makes it valuable. 

But things have changed, things have gotten worse. Profiles have become professional bots. Interactions become less genuine. Your feed is cluttered with things that aren't relevant to you.

At Showwcase, we're changing this, and we want to build it for ourselves - tech workers. Why? Because we believe that over the next decade, tech workers will be the most important asset to every business, idea, and company. Yet, representation of who we are, what we've done, whom we did it with, is completely fragmented and nothing is built for our workflows. 

So instead of a disparate collection of apps and experiences, we want a fresh, beautifully designed platform, which when used by tech workers feels like it was purpose-built for us. 

We want to build a space where we can share our work. A space to talk about what's happening in the industry. A space where we are leaders, and not succumb to the norms, and status quo of how things are. 

You decide how you want to participate in the network. You decide who is in your network. You decide what content you want to see. You decide what kind of messages get delivered to you.
