GBThe best gift a new mom could get The best gift a new mom could get! I was able to get a big group of women to contribute to a book for our friend on the eve of her first baby. Lots of love and funny stories and real talk. It was easy to do, beautifully designed (and I'm picky!) and was the talk of the baby shower. Our friend was able to have words of encouragement on hand during those long first nights and was so thankful :) I'll be making one of these books again for sure!

GBI used Kith and Kin to create a book…for my mother I used Kith and Kin to create a book for my mother's birthday. I asked my own family, all my siblings, their spouses and children to contribute their thoughts and photographs to the project. Kith and Kin made what should have been a time-consuming and logistically challenging project a very easy and stream-lined effort. They provide a template of questions that are delivered by email or text to each person you have requested contribute to the project. The contributors are given the option to respond to all of the questions or simply as many as they feel moved to answer. They are also given the option to upload photos from their electronic devices. The website allows you to send timely reminders to your group to prompt them to complete their submissions. Once someone submits a completed response, Kith and Kin alerts you and enables you to proof the submission before final inclusion in the hardcover book. The book arrived 8-10 days after the final submission. It was well-presented on good paper and beautifully bound. My mother was so happy. I was too.

GBThe concept is great.. some bugs to work out The concept is great, exactly what I was looking for. I like the simplicity so I don’t have to make too many design/formatting decisions etc. However a lot of the contributors to my book ran into bugs that made it very frustrating for them to make their contribution. I had to help several people by going into their contribution and attaching photos they emailed me because they couldn’t get them to attach. Photos would disappear when I tagged another. I eventually got it after trying many times, and switching between several browsers. Also, some contributors got confused re-accessing their drafts, I think you should make it clearer how to log in to your draft, users don’t realize they don’t have to log in to the account area (where you log in to a book you are managing). That said, when we finally got the book, it came out beautifully.
