Amit, I like the idea, also I like the survey results.

Some tough love here.

I don't find most of the concepts you list are relevant to me. These are largely broad in appeal, moderate in engagement, but highly competitive.

For instance, I like to talk about "Sports". For me this topic is a way to break the ice with people, mostly I talk about sports to "be social" as opposed being social because I want to talk about sports. If I wanted to talk about sports it is no problem finding a way to do so, certainly I could do so faster than signing up to some list and waiting for a reply; it is kindof sad to think somebody would be so isolated they could not talk about sports.

If I were you I would not solicit users for an app you describe to them as "crappy". It is one thing if you are not proud of your app, it is another thing to deprecate it in a disgusting way before critics have a chance at it!

First of all, thanks for your feedback. The interests that you want to talk about could be as broad as 'Sports' or it could be about a single match of Football. You are free to tell us your interests if they don't already exist on the platform. And I guess most of the popular interests among people within a particular area or geography would keep on changing based on current events. We believe people will use this platform to talk about those interests and passions which they can't talk about right now within their friend/family circle.

We are working very hard on actual product and the current MVP/Beta for which we are accepting signups is just a bare-bones version built to get few early adopters to try out the platform so that we can collect detailed feedback about what is working and what is not and update our actual product with these insights. But if it repels users from trying out the product, I will surely remove it. Again, thanks for your insights, it would help us a lot. And please sign up for our beta :)
