I'm surprized there are very few apps presented from a user centric point of view. "This app is a ..." bad, "Make better ..." good.

This makes it clear and easy to grab how the app will contribute to make my life better, anf why using and buying it might be worth for me.

Hey Kalzumeus, your marketing lessons are starting to work on me! I was just a dumb programmer before.

How did we do? "We help people quickly make decisions between competing options."

[agilebyte]

Stock options? Or just options in general? So is it like a friend giving you advice?

[StuieK]

We're trying to build a site that gives people the information they need to decide between different products/services/options. For example: http://www.slant.co/topics/697/~what-is-the-best-cross-platf...

So you are writing new reviews for each product in a "viewpoint" kind of way?

I am thinking about Metacritic and how they evaluate someone else's review but still link to it.

[StuieK]

It's actually all crowdsourced. Anyone can add new Viewpoints, improve existing ones etc. Reviews typically go out of date very rapidly so we're building something that can be constantly updated/improved. I guess the UI has a long way to go before it's obvious how it all works.

For example here is a pretty great rundown of CSS pre-processors (http://www.slant.co/topics/217/viewpoints/1/~best-css-prepro...). You can click through to see discussions, previous edits etc. (please ignore the lack of data in the bar charts on the "summary page", it's a brand new feature)

(also, I did a little stalking, you will like our stack: node, backbone, coffeescript, stylus. All single-page as well :)

[agilebyte]

OK thank you. Actually, the Suggested Edits interface is quite good. Maybe one could also comment on the edit they have just made ala git.

A good stack to have :). What are you using for server routing and the `package.js` compilation?

We also do a pretty good job with all the closed SO questions.
