It's not just a question of the amount of time it takes to fill out a registration form. It's the added mental overhead of adding yet another website that has my email and/or personal information. Furthermore, (and I mean this in the nicest possible way) in the context of this website (with no design and no information about what it actually does), you have zero credibility in my book. So I'm sorry, but no. If you cannot take 5-10 minutes to add a paragraph or two to the site about what it actually does, then I cannot take 20 seconds to register for the site in order to try to figure it out myself. EDIT: I realize you've sort of explained it now in this thread, but the point I'm trying to get across is that this is the thought process your typical visitor is going through.
