I'd put a way to ask a question right on the front page. People want to be able to test the merits of your service quickly (at least I did). I wanted to quickly type "Good wings in Toronto?" but couldn't find a place to do so, unless I signed up (I think?)

Optimizely (I'm not affiliated with them) gets this part down pat. You can start using their service right away without any signup.

Sorry -- I posted this as a comment below:

waterside. Thanks for the feedback. We are adding this functionality in the next few days, because to your point we want people to be able to use the site to ask anything about any location they want. You're spot on, and we appreciate that feedback.
