Review my webapp: Leyzi (for music)
Hi, me and a friend just finished working on the first iteration (minimum-viable product) of our webapp: Leyzi.com.
It's super easy to use, and that's definitely it's strong suit. It's also pretty darn accurate.
The code-base is in place, and we just want to launch it world-wide as soon as possible. Tomorrow, we get started on revising the design to be much more appealing (iterate, iterate, iterate).
All feedback (bad or good) would be much appreciated!

Even if this is just an early iteration, I'd suggest you take a few minutes to do some basic config on your server e.g. Log the errors, don't display them.
Unfortunately, I've been unable to use the site beyond that as all I see is a JS dialog with the message "Load Error" once the basic page design comes up (Chrome/Safari/Firefox on OSX) Hopefully this just means you're a victim of some success here at HN and you're working on a fix, but for now I'm afraid I can't provide any more useful feedback as I can't try your site out.
But yeah, keep the interface clean and simple (and not bright pink please!). IMO, I would put the search results in the center column and the playlist off to the right. Its a bit unintuitive the way it is now because when a user searches for something, they expect it to pop up immediately in front of them.
You should definitely build out playlists (if you haven't already) and what you can do is create a few and link to them on your homepage (ie. Coldplay's greatest hits). Integrate Facebook/Twitter logins for higher registration rates. Have fun.
A little background: me and Oguz just met a couple weeks ago (both USC freshmen from out of the country) and this is just the first of many projects. Look out, world!
a) It's an html5 version of the player possible? b) Aren't you afraid of RIAA and such?
