The high deductible insurance isn't only for emergencies -- many of these plans offer significant discounts on prescription medicines regardless whether you've met the deductible. This alone is worth it! Also, if you submit doctor's bills t

I didn't realize I was receiving an activation email, but after I got it I realized you do have Matches/Messages/Share/etc. Perhaps you should make these pages available even before people activate, but mention that they'll have to activate

I love dating sites! In general: Very nice UI! You bill this as a "dating site," but it seems more like Hot-or-Not. If you want it to be a dating site, you'll need to add location, and try to match closer people first. I also think that you

You're right there isn't much information. However, the homebrew computers/electronics scene unfortunately hasn't regained its earlier interest levels. Why? Tools that CEs use largely aren't available to the general public, and the learning
