Nudge Me 2.0: Solving Procrastination-Induced Stress in College Students

David NgoStanford University@dngoo

What users were suppose to do:• On Facebook Event:

o 1) Post "Nudge Me: [Assignment here]..." 

o 2) Post the result

What users did:

• On Facebook Event:o @mentioned the actual event

on their statuses for both posting assignments & results

What Shifting to Statuses Means• Easier for users: Ability 

• Only friends can comment & like statuses: Limits social network

What I did to improve

• Created a Facebook Group

• Allows non-friends to comment & like posts: Opens social network

• Can send a group chat message: Hotter Trigger

• @mentioned friends to "Nudge me" in my actual post

GroupChat in Groups: Hotter Trigger
