About Honestly Now

Why make a mistake if you don't have to? When you need to make a decision, Honestly Now brings advice from your friends and experts, in just a few clicks. It's market research on you: simply ask, post a pic, and send. At last, your friends can tell you what they really think, via their anonymous votes. National and local pros supplement the vote with top-quality advice on what to do to be your best. We make telling the truth and being a great friend a must-play, fast-paced, Web and mobile game. As the Q&A category takes off, Honestly Now will be able to uniquely understand how adults aged thirty-plus interact, and the privacy and dignity we demand. We are by-invitation-only for users and pros, vetting the best and seeding with major influencers. Launched in January 2011, Honestly Now recently won first place at the Stamford Tech Meetup and was lauded by Mashable as "addictive."
