This is a prototype for #repairables - The Restart Project's platform connecting all amateur and professional repairers with people in need of repairing all kinds of things (from mobile phones to vintage turntables, from bikes to suitcases). If you want to help build the platform or support its development, get in touch at http://therestartproject.org

1. Prototyped at UP London Hackathon
April 20-21 2013

2. Janet contacts @RestartProject
asking for help, using the hashtag
#repairables

3. @RestartProject automatically sends her a link
to a repair request form to complete

4. Janet fills the form and submit it by signing up on Twitter

5. The completed form can be shared across social media

6. @RestartProject promotes
the repair request on Twitter

7. Tom reads the request and wants to help Janet

8. Janet browses help offers received, ordered by location

9. Janet browses other users' feedback about Tom and chooses him

10. Tom is notified of Janet's decision

11. Janet receives Tom's contact info and pre-repair advice

12. Janet and Tom meet, and the phone is successfully repaired!

13. The Restart Project's future platform
connecting amateur and professional repairers
with people trying to repair all kinds of things
(from electronics to bicycles and suitcases)
