The three static pages (Welcome, Realtime & Trends) are meant to be self-explanatory. We want our mothers to be able to use the site. Please comment on content and proposed service. |

- Trends are a great idea, and showing them by area makes it a lot more powerful (for example, i'd love to see what people are saying about the election right now, here in south jersey).
- My first question when visiting the site is -- How will the public people see my postcard?
- My next question is -- why should I use this instead of twitter, where I can do things like @reply the public person.
- The top message "send positive/negative postcards"... conflicts with the bullet list of the things I can use the service for...
- I'm not sure navigating between realtime and trends to set the geographic area of search is very clear to a user. Not quite obvious enough
- I think you can lean things out a bit -- do you really need a log in box taking up that much space on every screen?
- Real time: the map is a neat attention grabber, and gets me interested a bit the first time visiting, but I'm not sure it would be as enticing on later views. As mentioned above, I'd work on a more direct way to see trends in an area.
Great start, hope this was helpful!
