Thank you for not putting a useless subject line when messaging a user.

I love the setup flow. I really appreciate the time taken to request for more Facebook permissions as you need them. Facebook photo import just works.

Consider having your initial pre-signup matches to be somewhat closer to the user based on their location. (IP address, Geolocation API upsell while showing initial matches, etc.) I saw lots of folks in New York show up initially but after putting in my ZIP code there were plenty of local matches.

EDIT: The empty inbox picture made me laugh! Nice one.

That's a fair point about the initial search using the location. We launched showing country matches initially to give you more chance of results with a low user base but ideally you would use the location.

Glad you liked the empty inbox reference!
