Just curious–why do you want to host the data on your own servers?

The people I like to follow on twitter most are those that are laser-focused on producing content related to one thing. Conan O'Brien, for example, almost exclusively tells jokes. I don't want to read his re-tweet of some fan's comment, for example. These make Twitter a lot less useful. A complement to your service would be to remove these less useful tweets from my feed, and just show in aggregate the links that were tweeted, as you currently do. I've spent very little time on Twitter; maybe this kind of service was first offered years ago.

Following what @georgespencer said, there's no strong brand here. Forget about the website and come up with a brand.
By the way, marketing yourselves to people that will pay you handsomely for professional services and then putting an ad for a $4.99 template at the bottom is a dumb idea.

It certainly looks like Flow XO fills a need, but how does it differ from IFTT? I'm familiar with the concept of IFTT, but have never used it.

I would focus on simplifying the steps a new visitor to the site takes. I found it confusing. For example, I got to the screen with the h1 text "Welcome", but at the top left was an animated arrow pointing to another Welcome button. Where am I supposed to go?

The example sounds sound really nice. I'm less likely to get hooked on the free sounds though because of the attribution requirement.

Ah. I'd never really looked much at imgur. Seems they've got the funny video angle covered, too.
Re:QuickVid 2.0 – Imgur for Videos – New UI and Re-design
on Monday November 03, 2014 @08:07PM (#8554651)
Notice how imgur hits you immediately with the main attraction, funny pics? If QuickVid is to be funny videos , shouldn't that be more visible? I'd think ppl have to be inspired to upload in the first place. Have the instructions on how to do so is secondary. Actually it doesn't appear that funny vids is your angle, but video hosting/sharing in general. Don't you think you need a slant or else you're just a YouTube clone? Anyway, funny vids on YouTube kind of hit you immediately on going to YouTube anyway, so that might not be a good angle either.
