I've got a group that regularly meets in bars, restaurants, theatres, cafes which is organised through meetup.com They're pretty switched on and I can easily get 60+ folk along to a meetup at any one time.I'd love to turn this in to a business but have no idea how to monetize? From the user side or business side? Offering businesses the same benefit as a daily deal site could work, or ask for...
So I would either take the red away or make it go somewhere, perhaps the registration?
Another idea is to ask the community to post compatibility and/or hacks to make them work.
All and all a very useful resource in any case!
What would be super useful is something that tells you what it looks like on older / other browsers, you've obviously thought about this with the image shots, but many images are missing.
Perhaps some sort of integration with browsershots or even just a text compatibility chart?
I echo what was said before, don't like the header. I get what you're trying to do with newspaper, though a cleaner font would work better. Look at the UK gaurdian app in newsstand for inspiration.
I would also suggest images in the article though again it may take away from the newspaper feel.
The flipping doesn't always work, it opens an article on the odd flip try.
I would love to see:
- Instapaper integration - Pull in the comments if possible - isn't that what makes HN,Hn? - Bookmarking - New threads instead of just front page - Number of comments so far - A very light tint of colour on the buttons, 10% blue?
All in all great experience, with a tweaks this could be a winner!
