Opinion-Polling Network Thumb Now Routes Questions By Location For More Relevant Answers

Thumb, the opinion-polling network that lets people get real-time crowdsourced recommendations, has today launched a new update to the app routes questions in a totally new way: by location. This was something that founder Dan Kurani said was always in Thumb's plan, but that patience was the key. "We wanted to have enough liquidity to ensure the best possible experience for our users," said Kurani. And by liquidity, he's not only referencing sheer user numbers but platform engagement on the whole. The app has seen nearly 24 million unique questions pass through its doors, and over 228 million sessions since launch. And it's not like they don't come back — according to Kurani, 20 percent of Thumb users return to the app seven out of seven days.
