I visited Quora a while back. It had a login page, nothing that really described what it was, no examples. I figured it was a walled garden that invited participants. From the front page, you still can't tell what it is or why it is worth taking the time to sign up. Maybe it is a decent service, but, they lost me on the landing page. Path.com, maybe I'm stupid, is it a dating site? Instagram was interesting and I was able to figure out what that site was almost immediately. Since I was around when the SX-70 Land came out, their design and presentation actually was interesting. Too bad I use Android. A landing page should tell me precisely what you offer, in quick and simple terms so that I can see how that site is going to benefit me. I'm not going to sign up - no matter how easy it is - to investigate whether this site has anything of interest. I'm still unsure what path.com is other than a hyper-local facebook newsstream. Maybe Quora and Path are still in stealth mode and doing the google invitation rollout, but, Instagram does look interesting.
