We are building a new way to cherish memories. Sign up for beta if interested.

I think you'll need more than "a new way to cherish memories" with no substance whatsoever to get me to signup...

I don't think this is a bad concept, but what are the ethics of harvesting the HN community for early signups? Better, I think, would have been to write a technical article with some value to the community and offer early access signups at the end. The way it's been submitted you pretty much spammed us... a trend that I hope doesn't gain more traction.

Misspelled word as name is a turn-off.<p>Also, the tag line being all the info available, it makes me think that it's a photo sharing site, or a blogging site, or a photo blogging site, or something like that. There are plenty of those already. If you really are doing something noteworthy, you need to communicate it more effectively.

I might be in the minority, but describing the site as "a new way to cherish memories" does not really entice me to sign up. Visiting the Twitter account led me to <a href="http://betali.st/startups/momment" rel="nofollow">http://betali.st/startups/momment</a> , which sounds more interesting.

So you don't even have time to write your own launch page ?

Why can't sites just go live?<p>I'm sick of seeing these marketing stunts with new startups wanting you to get on the list just to lure you in.<p>If I'm going to sign up for anything it better be ready to go and use.<p>Fuck it, just do it live.<p>/saturday-morning-rant

So as to not come off as a total douchebag from my previous comments, I will commend you on doing what it takes to get noticed.<p>I am in the same boat (as you) and I can understand it's hard to get people to notice you especially if you have no backing/funding/whatever. I'm flying solo so it's especially hard for me.<p>However, if you want us to give you something, you have to give us something. :)<p>I'm not going to sign up, but I will keep an eye out for your announcement when it does go live! :)<p>Good luck.
