Hi,

Sorry, I forgot your name, but I did hear your pitch on This Week in Startups with Jason Calacanis. I like this web site because you mentioned "existing" social media. After creating an account and creating an HOA page - I don't see where the existing social media components are. I do see that you can pull in my blog's RSS feed (neat) and I can input my Skype username. I'm interested in a Facebook, Twitter, Flickr combination. Are there any plans for that?

Also; I hate my current HOA site (i-neighbors), primarily because it looks like a site done in 1999. Unfortunetly; this site is not better off. You're a little more functional and because you're approachable, I believe you can adjust the site as needed, but I'm not liking the "beta" design.

I'm a opensource web developer, so maybe we could work together and really do something extrondinary with this site. Let me know and thank you for this service.

One of the main functions I would need to get my folks off of that i-neighbors site and onto this one is how they communicate. Would the members HAVE to come to this site to post something or is there a mailing list they can send to. Unfortunetly; for them they're not as tech savvy and sending an email is easier than posting on a forum. For me, I love forums, blah blah blah. You get the idea. :)

Side note: I realized I spelled "unforunetly" incorrectly (as I always do), but there's no spellcheck in the options. When I right-click I get a set of options with no spellcheck either. Thanks.

I heard of this site from TWIST as well. It's a great idea, but I agree with the original poster, it does need a little work. Facebook, Twitter login integration is good. An iPhone app would be nice. Also, you probably want to look at squarespace.com and how they easily let people customize the look and feel of their user's pages. You need something like that for customizing profiles here. Your current interface for tweaking a profile is too complicated, not worth the effort. I just want to look at 10-20 templates and pick my favorite.

 

Great site though, keep it up!
