I&#x27;ll echo what the others have said in that it&#x27;s a little confusing. It&#x27;s more of a dashboard creation kit than a tool for end-users. For example, do I really need to be able to change the span of the dash widgets as an end-user?<p>I&#x27;m also not sure what the Queries search boxes do. I typed in an area of interest &quot;AngularJS&quot;, but couldn&#x27;t figure out what it did. I was hoping to get a list of all submissions about AngularJS (including all the metrics in the Graph widget).<p>You&#x27;ve obviously put a lot of hard work into this and I love your idea. I just feel that it&#x27;s more of a tool for you as a developer than me as an end-user.<p>I&#x27;ve bookmarked you and look forward to checking up on future progress!

This had the potential to be interesting, but I have no idea what anything does or why I should care, so I left.<p>Put some time into making the UI more friendly and consider something like Intro.js that gives user&#x27;s a tour and helps them see the value in your site.
