Well, i think the first thing I would do is choose one logo and stick to it, preferrably one of the ones that is easiest to read. Navigation seems okay so far but you don't see much pre-registration and I'm not sure what it would be like afterwards. I don't want to register to find out, either.
Other concerns I would have for the site... if it were mine... is the lack of legal disclaimers and a privacy statement because you may require more information from your users than will actually be used for data matching. The terms and conditions are really too broad to be effective on their own.
Thanks for the feedback!
RE: the changing logo... although normally I would stick with a single logo, one of my guiding principles during the development of the website was that it should be flexible and dynamic in nature. The true power of the tool is in the capture of people's meta data and the use of that data to allow people to find one another quickly and easily.
You can use NuMetta to find people who have similar ideas, interests, or needs, such as:
-- If you’re interested in a certain hobby, such as video games or antique cars, then you can use NuMetta to find others in your area with similar interests.
-- If you like athletic activities such as bicycling or running, then you can use NuMetta to find others locally to share your activities with.
-- If you have a business idea and would like to meet people in your area who can help get your business off the ground, then NuMetta is for you.
-- If you have junk in your garage or basement that you’d like to get rid of (or if you’re looking for junk that other people might want to get rid of), then use NuMetta.
To make a long story short, I rotate website logos to symbolize the dynamic nature of NuMetta.
RE: privacy statement... point well taken. I will incorporate something into the "terms and conditions" stating that the information will not be shared etc. etc.
RE: "...you don't see much pre-registration"... I guess that I'll need to come up with a clean way to expose some of the innards of the tool so that 1st-time visitors can see how powerful it is.
Thanks again!
