   Hey, not a bad idea but it really is too complicated at the moment. Yes, I know to you its super super simple and clear and obvious. Most people who go to the site though will only spend a few seconds trying to figure it out - I spent a fe

   Thanks for the extra info. I am working on something that is not a million miles away from your product ( http://klavado.com ) Yes, mine is focused on places but the core idea of easily polling people without creating an account

   Thanks for the feedback. Do you think there is a market for the product I'm trying to build?

   mmm, I actually quite like the site though I can't think of a monetisation strategy for it. How are you getting your traffic and what is the trajectory?

    Sorry, looking back at my question now, I realise I should have at least included a link to Microsoft's tossup so people can see what its about: http://techcrunch.com/2015/07/06/microsofts-new-tossup-app-

    Thanks. Hard not to get distracted by Microsoft though ;)

    Thanks for your feedback. Yes, its strange that Microsoft decided to launch for Android and iOS but not for Windows phone. It is possible that its something they will not be fully committed to. Of the 2 options (i- service to decide on pla

    mmm, would be interesting to understand how it actually works better. How do you automate the selection of a time and place? Surely it's easier to just get participants to vote - like here: http://klavado.com

    Ha haa - interesting to see this. I had something similar in mind when I bought the domain http://chattymaps.com As you can see if you look at it now, the concept has changed somewhat. I'm still looking at adding more &#x2

    Wow, these are the stories we need to hear more of!! I'm a bit tired of the overnight success stories getting all the attention. If such an awesome product has taken so long to make something in the region of 1000 dollars a month th

    Yes, the original concept was for the Spanish market but I thought I'd try using it with this anyway.

    Ha haa - I'd never heard of Clamato before. It sounds horrible!! Yes I would prefer to have a nice sounding name that had something to do with the concept but I can't for the life of me think of one. If associating it with some

    Thanks mokkol, I appreciate the appreciation ;)

    Good point, thanks. Will consider adding some concept of a collection of meetups. This will allow users to group a bunch of meetups in one space. Within than collection a particular meetup could be set to be copied to different dates.

    Yes, I have struggled with names. I also own moodleboard.com and I thought of using that but I think klavado.com is better. Thanks for the pointers about the timepicker - you are right. I will update it later this week.

    Well spotted, I do indeed use liquid-fire - and I will make better use of it in the next iteration. The feedback bar is actually quite independent of the rest of the site: its from uservoice.com ;)

    Yes I think there is quite a distinction between how groups of friends would use this app and how people who don't know each other beforehand would. I'm aiming more for groups of friends (or at least people who would recognise ea

    Ah, perhaps the radio station at the custard factory is a reference to the cartoon or the sweet. You are right about the expected user action not being very clear - I'll have a think about ways to fix that. Thanks again for your intere

    Wow, if I could give an award for the best feedback it would go to you ;) You even included a screenshot - awesome!! I wonder though why you think the social dynamic of the participants deciding might not work. Surely the best time and pl

    ha ha - yes I realise its a bit of a buzzword. I initially thought of klavado as a 'place polling app' or a 'doodle.com for places' but I found most people I showed it to just saw it as something for planning meetups so
