Design and loading "speed" - well, should be optimized! Regarding the idea itself: Where do you see a difference between SendFlare and i.e. paywithatweet.com or any other sort of those tools? I gave some of them a try during the last years and none of them had this "Wow!" effect - was more like a nice to have, but nothing I wanted to use every single day.

Still: I believe that our social "statistics" will become part of payments 3.0 but none of the tools I know consider my exact data i.e. # of followers on Twitter or friends on Facebook just to name the most obvious ones.

The idea behind SendFlare is exactly what you mentioned, gaining information on your customers and possibly “know” them, as you said through statistics. One way SendFlare differentiates, is through providing many ways for users to download your content, such as Twitter Post, Following you on Twitter, Joining a mailing list or pay for it. I have a plan to generate stats on the followers/customers through social feeds (since we already know “who” the customers are).
Appreciate the feedback!
