Show HN: Invite to try fiesta.cc - effortless mailing lists

Sounds a good concept. Can anyone send email to the created list or just the initial members? What if the list is already created / used by other people?

Mailing list systems are complicated for a reason: the signup process where you have to send a confirmation mail is there to prevent users from unsolicted mails.<p>How are you going to solve the problem of unsolicted mail deployed through these autovivified mailing lists?

There seems to be a problem with the encoding:<p>Hi, =?ISO-8859-1?Q?Gabriel_Rodr=EDguez_Alberich?=! Choose a password to use for fiesta.cc:

I love the simple landing page. The only thing I'd change are the screenshots. If you add a highlight to the CC textfield for example, it'd more quickly illustrate the point. Centering the object doesn't really put enough focus on it.<p>Also, you could put more context in the example. Like saying it's for birthday party or for vacation photo's (like Apple does).

Thanks for this, we used librelist.com to create our ML last months, but it was too opened (archives on google, anyone could join) for some people.<p><a href="https://fiesta.cc/about" rel="nofollow">https://fiesta.cc/about</a> do you use mongodb in the backend?<p>If so, could you give us more technical details about how you connect your mail server to the DB?

Looks great! I think you should rework the testimonials on the site. I don't think your target audience will recognize a Twitter username.<p>A feature request would be a link to see the full history of the email list. Would be great to be able to add another person down the line and them being able to read up on what topics have already been discussed.

I'll be around here to answer any questions about fiesta. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

Awesome concept. It was about time someone innovated on the mailing list concept.

I like how simple this is, but I find the branding a bit off. Nothing is memorable about fiesta.cc, and a .cc domain tells me you may not be serious enough about your business to invest in a better domain.

Is there a UI that I can use to edit the lists? The whole plustag thing seems tedious.

How do you plan to make money? Annoying ads in the emails or some other idea?

Off-topic, but your roommate is my colleague.....all the best :)

Great idea, very simple and instantly cross-platform.

Isn't this what Posterous supposedly does? In relation to Yahoo/Google groups, where does list archives go?
