I would suggest you set up a throwaway yahoo email and email the site. I understand it may be confusing but all discussion happens through email and the focus shouldn't be the homepage. We can demo thru email once you set up a throwaway account. In addition, you can use the throwaway email to actually use the site if you have an aversion to using your personal email.

There is still a ton of information that you could provide to the new users visiting your home page. It is your job to convince the users to send that first email. Suggesting that people create throw away email accounts does not sound like the best user on-boarding process. This is where examples, or better descriptions on your home page would help.

[tci22]

Okay. Good point. How would you describe it through words? Keeping in mind people don't want to use their personal emails. Suggestions welcome.

> How would you describe it through words?

That's your job. :)

Put it out there, be as succinct as you can, and tweak it along the way. No shortcuts here.

I dunno...seems succinct enough: pick a topic, send us an email, and we forward emails to you from emailers discussing same topic. I only suggested creating a throwaway because people worry about spam.

How about illustrating the whole process? Cartoons are easy to understand.

Jesus just get in there and start emailing buddy. :)

[pavel_lishin]

That's asking me for a lot of effort without giving me much of a reason.

[tci22]

The concept of the site, or the description of the site? What seems taxing?

[pavel_lishin]

Having to set up a throwaway e-mail account to try out your service, without an explanation of how it works, first.

Yes, it's easy. No, I don't want to have to do it.

[tci22]

Um...okay
