Heh. Well, I think everyone works differently, and everyone finds a different "zone" in various todo apps. You know, they feel right or they don't. So us todo app developers shall not rest until every user class is accommodated :) What's funny is that I thought I had boiled down the homepage to a succinct "sell" explaining the app. But looking at it now, I see that it definitely looks like a "features" page and not a landing page. And there is no reason I can't have an actionable form on the homepage. Still, I have a traffic driving problem, and my homepage optimization problem is secondary. But I think you guys have helped me lift the cloud I was in thinking the front page looked okay. It's actually starting to repulse me now, heh. I know anything can be grown, and I will admit that my enthusiasm is waning, but I think it's because I'm recognizing right now that the main way I have to grow this is by just bombarding productivity/lifestyle bloggers about it. I KNOW that's necessary, and I would feel motivated about it if this was a "business". But it's not, and it's hard to drum up the fire to put on my marketing hat. I was hoping for more of a 2nd order effect from Lifehacker (e.g. smaller bloggers picking up the story and then blogging on their own) but it didn't really happen. I think you're right that I'm wrong about todo lists being inherently private. I'd like to think of something more clever than wall-spamming, maybe achievements or levels etc, so even if you don't share, you still are playing a metagame by yourself on the site which may make it more sticky. Or keeping a history of what you've done so you can feel good about it in the afterglow. Something like that. But I do need to focus on virality, not stickiness. Thanks for the good response!
