I like the concept. There is a lot of redundancy whenever you go to start a new social app.
Quick recommendation - I clicked through three pages before I got to the "About" page, and it wasn't until I got to that page that I fully understood why something like this is important.
I would have put more of that "About" content on the very first page so people know why they should care about it. Just my two cents...
- romain_dardour 14y agoGood advice, thank you for the frank words. We tried very hard to keep the home page clean, maybe a bit too much so then.
- yahelc 14y agoI signed up for Beta access. One minor discomfort and some friendly advice: The thank you text says "Thanks for joining the brotherhood". You might want to stay away from language that's exclusionary to 50% of the population, and a great majority of social media users, even if it's solely intended as fun, jocular page copy.
- romain_dardour 14y agoNoted. thanks :)
- tchock23 14y agoThe homepage is so clean and compelling that I scrolled down to learn more, causing me to miss the "About" link in the primary nav and use the learn more links on the bottom of each page. That might not be typical of most people browsing the site, so take my advice with a grain of salt. In hindsight, maybe it just needs something snappy like "It's like a CMS for your next social app" (or an equivalent analogy), like startups coming out of YC often do for demo day. "An open platform for social apps" made me pause a bit too long because it's a relatively new concept.
