Sharing Private Jetpaks
Jetpak is Public

It seems like it would be a good option to allow current Jeteye members to share private jetpaks with non-jeteye members. I'm running into the situation where I created a jetpak that I don't want to share with the public. However, I do want to share it with someone who is not currently a Jeteye member.

 

I think a better approach would be to allow jetpaks to be sent to anyone. If the the jetpak is private and the recipient is NOT a member, then they would be required to join in order to view the jetpak. This should make it easier for people to share proprietary or confidential info via jetpaks.

 

I think the process could work as follows:

  1. Jeteye member sends a jetpak to a non-jeteye member. Jeteye creates a "pending" membership using the email address of the non-jeteye member.
  2. Non-jeteye member receives an email invite to view a private jetpak. The invite has a url link that marks the incoming visitor to JetEye as a non-jeteye member with a "pending" membership and one or more private jetpaks waiting to be viewed.
  3. When the non-jeteye member clicks on the url, they are brought to a page that says they need to become a member in order to view this private jetpak.
  4. The user can create a new ID or use their email address as their ID. After the membership is created, Jeteye can change the membership from "pending" to permanent (or whatever the status should be).
  5. The new memberr is brought to the private jetpak referenced by the email invite.
  6. If the new member was previously the recipient of other private jetpaks then those would be placed in their inbox.
