I appreciate your serious and well thought out feedback. I truly intended this to be a "meh, go for it" website while I focus on building my startup http://barkles.com.
It has definitely attracted the 'crazy' ones who post random and pointless info, but that is what I was aiming for.
I can lock it down for login only, and do exactly what you suggest and it could actually become a great resource. However the full moderation that is needed will take me away from Barkles, which is not what was intended.
Great to see that people are using it anyway, and having a lot of fun with it.
Although, if you do have a look around you will see some great answers amongst the stupidity, which actually helps the people who posted that (everything links back to their websites).
Again, thanks for the well thought out feedback, really appreciated.

Was your aim just to see how people respond, or are you hoping that in 3 months, a year's time it's being actively used? And, if the latter, still as a random "look what I made in a weekend" way, or a "woah, check out how much money this brings me"?
