Ok, I love the idea firstly and I think he shouldn't quit just yet, pivot and iterate, yes. Problems to be addressed. 1) Trying to do two things at once - It should be Date or Done, that is it nothing else. Don't try to be Date or Do; do one thing and do it well. 2)Reduce the options available to users - Give your users too much choices and they don't want to use your site, Choice Paradox. So, take away that form on the front page about what they want to see. 3)Remove the How to Use - The site should be intuitive enough so that they understand how to use the site. 4)One Question on the front page - Again limit the options the users have. Only one question to respond to. 5)Don't require login to vote, Date or Done - Make it easy for the users to interact with your site. 6)Seed your stories - Give your users something to munch on while they don't have any questions of their own. 7)Make comments one liners - Comments should be able to fit in a twitter status. Also, give them a button to allow for more characters. 8)Sharable comments - When you make a comment, it is suppose to be likeable and tweetable[new words]. People have this need to show they are smart or funny or whatever to their friends, make it easier for them do to this will allow your site to spread virally. 9) Get a technical founder - I will leave the percentage up to you. But, a huge chunk will be my suggestion. 10) Make link SEO friendly - I see they kinda seo friendly, but we need them to be questions that people would actually google for. 11) Anonymous posting of questions ---> Take a month off and get back to it. You definitely have not tried everything.
