thanks for advices. regarding twitter - no, never, no tweets. by the way, this is something someone could communicate to twitter - they actually say what permissions you give us (read your timeline + know whom you follow = to tell if your friends are here)

tnx, lot of feedback about this. we'll add screenshots/ description on front page

Re:Ask HN: Review my site - Infogr.am - easy infographic tool on Thursday February 02, 2012 @05:37PM (#3544827)

there's a little problem - we have autosave. so, there's not a single button after you make a new chart where we could ask to login. I strongly agree that it is aggressive that we ask to authorize this way. what's better: a) descriptive images / screenshots on front page (aka "learn more") b) add a save button (then ask for login), unless it's pressed no data is saved.

freemium. basic things will always be free. later we'll sell design templates / more data formats.

Re:Ask HN: Review my site - Infogr.am - easy infographic tool on Thursday February 02, 2012 @05:33PM (#3544812)

thanks, I start to agree with you:) Do you think screenshots alone would help or software should be usable without authentication till some period (like when you need to save something?)

Hi, my startup just launched it's first public beta - www.infogr.am It's a web-based software for super-easy data visualization and infographics. Interactive, non-flash animated infographics can be made in minutes. We're launching Charts app today (for super-simplem charts) and Infographics app for more complex visualizations is coming soon. We'll be adding a more great functionality in next...

Text aligning for content on blue stripe could be left, I think.

And I'd placed those bullets representing slides below/above content. It takes time to find it.

BTW, app seems pretty beautiful.

FB authorization fails.

Re:Rate my startup: StyleJam on Monday October 10, 2011 @07:48AM (#3093351)

There's way too much elements on front page. Idea is good, yet not unique, I'd suggest focusing on design, first by removing 90% of content that doesn't essentially matter.
