I have NO idea what this is about.

Nice design though.. so that intrigues me. I'm guessing some sort of social networking, but there's no way you're going to force me to sign up before I find out what you site's about.

Tell me, if it is a SN site, how do you get your first 10,000 users, so it gives the slightest chance of me finding someone I want to network with?

Assuming that you started on day one, with just your nearest and dearest signed up, where do you get your real customers (are they customers I still don't know if you're providing some sort of service) or users from? I'd love to know.

Can I ask you what particularly about the design you like? What part exactly is intriguing you? Clarity would be great so we can focus in on those areas. Thanks!
Effective and interesting choice of blue tones. I like the point and click pictures on the front page - I actually wanted to click to see what happened. so I did...then you want me to sign up. Please give me something before you take.

If I could see what the site did, before you signed me up, I might go for it. All I know so far, is that I've told you my three favourite foods, and that I want to go on a "Camping trip at Yosemite".

I'd love it if you'd answer my question to you.. where do you get your first sign-ups for your social networking site? If there's no one to network with, what am I doing here?

We marketed to groups and organizations. Hence, they all had connections when they signed up.
