Nice work, and thank you for sharing! Design execution is excellent, hope you dont mind if i borrow some ideas. The cash incentive is a nice touch to reward your champions.


New Jersey early stage startup is looking for locals. Show your NJ love.

Hiring software engineers and mobile app developers.

Java, JavaScript, AJAX (JQuery, Prototype, ExtJS) with a working knowledge of Spring MVC Framework and a sprinkling of C# wouldnt hurt.

I just choked on an almond. That was hilarious and dead on.


One of the two that you're eating for breakfeast after following this guide? ;)


More like one of the twenty four-hours-before, if he's following 4HB. ;)


thanks - I was thinking about jersey city or newark.


Cool idea. I love that you create a shopping list. You definitely want to connect this to your phone so you can pull shopping list in the store.

Revenue will be tough. My experience with recipes are that people dont like to pay for them. You will need ads, and therefore scale. That said, if you have the capital to wait and develop real usage, its a great advertising opportunity (person looking at there phone in a store ready to buy).


iPhone app is definitely something I'd like to do. I'm not completely opposed to ads, I'd just like to avoid slowing down the site -- loading time & usability-wise. Which I think is probably doable.

EDIT: To clarify/expand something: If I ever chose to charge a fee, it would be for solving the "disorganized pile of bookmarks & print-outs" problem, not so much for access to recipes, which you can get anywhere. Of course, people may not be willing to pay for that either.


I agree with the other comments on the UI, so i wont repeat. As for additional features, add some social media links after signup, maybe a "thank you" email, and an option for multiple landing pages for testing.

I didnt see in the demo, where does the collected data get stored?


After you sign up, there's a "gathered emails" pane for every site in the admin panel; you can export all of the data to CSV or only emails to plain txt.

Good feature ideas. I'll look into that after I fix the homepage.

Thanks!


Very nice. I spend so much of my time designing reporting like this or doing it manually in excel. I especially like the cohort reporting. Im launching a new product now and will seriously look at a this. Any details on the pricing?


Not at this moment. We are going to offer pricing tiers based on the size of your userbase.


Old news that dating sites manufacture profiles to attract other users, but this approach doesnt seem viable. Its like uploading the white pages, the connect rate for users will be abysmal.


my thoughts exactly. i like it.
