These are some great comments. Thanks so much for your time/review/thoughts. The site is more of an introduction/matchmaking site. I only billed it as a "dating" site in the link I submitted to HNYC because that's kind of the niche it fits in. Business model: We're testing this out initially to see how it goes. We will be adding location/nearness, but that's not used initially until we reach a critical mass. We definitely weren't trying to hide our messaging costs-- we just didn't want to dissuade people who are just curious from at least getting on the site and seeing matches. I don't want people to get confused and think it costs any money whatsoever to use/match/vote with our site or widgets. We'll keep that impression in mind and do our best to find a better middleground. Moderation: I 100% agree. We're definitely going to be moderating these pictures before inclusion (a day or two after launch). If you saw a nonhuman it was one of our left-over test images-- we have to track that one down. Sorry about that and thanks for mentioning it. Facebook: The entire backend is designed to work well as MySpace/Facebook/iPhone apps-- so that's soon on the radar. We wanted to start with the core site and build from there. On opening the page: We saw that a bit in user testing, too-- so we added the "arrow" and some initial flash animation to encourage clicking. We'll be watching how people handle this and adapting-- thanks for mentioning. Your other points I absolutely agree with, too-- we'll work on those. Thanks again!
