Don't be sorry! Looking for honest feedback.
Re: the reviews, we're actually trying to differentiate from other websites by offering "recommendations" instead of "reviews". For example, when I'm simply looking for a place to eat lunch today I don't necessarily want to read pages and pages of long-winded exposition (i.e., reviews) -- I simply want those in the know (local foodies) to point me in the right direction.
What do you think of that approach?
- petervandijck 16y agoSounds good in theory, but it's not there right now. I'd work hard on the UI and the content. As per your theory, I would expect to do a search, and then see: "JoeX says 'the burgerbarx is great because of y'." Ie. show the people recommending (the foodies) and show what they say. And make it look less like a databasedump (being harsh again) ;)
- rsbrown 16y agoI appreciate it. We'll post a follow-up after we clean up the UI and get a second round of opinions. The team currently consists of tech/business talent -- no designers. And it shows.
