Buddy, I think you already asked for feedback a couple of times. You should improve the site based on those then come back for a second review.

i suspect he doesn't want feedback, he wants users/eyeballs/traffic/SEO, and has a clever way of getting it (ask for reviews).

  No, what I REALLY want are suggestions on improvements on either: a) the site/design/functionality b) the idea itself The site is completely free and the few Adsense ads are not even breaking even yet so it's definitely not about the money.

    i appreciate this, but based on your participation and submission history, your motives seem like they could be questionable.

      I agree and certainly see how you might think that. I have mostly been a reader up to this point (as I am on most blogs/forums I read). I have now posted several (4 maybe? not sure how to see) requests for feedback. The first time was amazing. The next few times (which were spread apart to avoid seeming like spam) got almost no response. I was unsure if it was a timing problem or what (memorial weekend, buried by popular breaking news, etc.) so I have tried several additional times. I thought that at least the people that were helpful the first time might like to see that their suggestions were taken to heart and implemented in a very timely manner (considering I'm a solo operation). If you have a suggestion for some other site/forum that can provide the kind of great feedback I got that first time, I would certainly appreciate it and try there and simply continue reading here.

That's what I'm trying to do (get more feedback). I got such amazing feedback here the first time that I'm just trying to get more of it. I have made all the improvements from the first round of feedback already as well as some changes that were the result of usertesting (from usertesting.com).
