Socially acceptable when2meet for friend hangouts

the scheduling tango described by Maggie Appleton is so relatable

• when2meet isn’t perfect and neither are appointment calendars, but they are a step in the right direction i think
• the only problem is that it may seem too business like to schedule time in this manner
  • is this just a social norm thing that we can get rid of?

is there a social algorithm that we could use?

• is it more effective to ask people when they are free or when they are not free? and then work from there
• potential algo:
  • you both send which days you prefer and then find a commonality
  • with the common day, you send which times you prefer and then find a commonality
  • you lock in the day and time that you both agree to
• if you front load the days and times that you are free the text takes too long
  • but if you space it out over texts, you are then dependent on when the other person responds
