Two hours ago, I asked HN for feedback on a site I spent months working on. It got 2 responses. I hope you see better results than me.

As per the idea, I can see the appeal, but I'd like to see a demo or some more screenshots before signing up. I hate signing up.

Edit: I found the sample profile. It's OK, but relatively unimpressive.

Thanks for the feedback!

And good call on the screenshots. Here are screenshots of the logged-in view and profile (zoomed out so they fit) - http://i55.tinypic.com/qrc0ep.png

I realize there's not much to the site, but I'm more curious to see if the pitch on the site is good enough to get people to sign up.

(ot)

Sounds like you should wait more than two hours.

Also, sounds like maybe it's better to ask for advice earlier. Not to say that you wasted months (I haven't really looked at your site yet), but I think you waited too long to get advice/opinion.

photon_off, I went and looked for submissions from you and the last one appears to have been 7 days ago. Am I missing something?

I removed it. I'm going to try reposting later.

My first impression is that it looks way too obtrusive.
