Hello guys. A friend and I built a small web app last week and we would love to get some feedback. Are we providing enough value for the users? Is there enough information on the homepage for people to sign up with Facebook? Here's the page, thank you for your feedback!

17 days is a bit shortlived lol.<p>But, I feel it can be expanded to encompass anything you wish to do with friends where you can publicly list goals, add photos from each accomplishment etc etc with friends and family.<p>I don't like when apps use Facebook as a prerequisite, but I would find a way to utilize Facebook's reach without requiring it to participate. Use it as a tool - not as the foundation.<p>It's a concept, needs some refining - but there's promise.
First of all, congratulations for shipping, that's half the battle :) . I like the logo, background very much.<p>Like masnick, I don't really use Facebook logins unless I absolutely must (AND it's blocked at work).<p>I'd remove the "test test test" goal :) . Maybe you can pre-populate from the best-known bucket lists?
I don't really see the value in your site - personally wouldn't use it.<p>But if you guys are stuck on the idea, I'd take out the big block of text that reads:
"What if on December 21st 2012
the world really came to an end?"<p>and replace it with something a bit more to the point about what you guys are doing.
Your product isn't clearly defined and the very last two sentences have a hint at what the product might be. What are you actually offering?<p>Also, a lot of people are fed up with this end-of-the-world thing and might be somewhat turned off that you are using it as a theme for your product description.
Congratulations on going live! I think maybe a short explanation on how you add value/your USP might help. There are several goal achievement related websites out there.<p>Also, you probably want to think about how you are going to change the punch line post Dec 2012 :)
Wow, really unnecessarily harsh people in here. Maybe someone should start a community for people who are interested in start-ups and tech projects so these people aren't burdened by posts like this.. oh wait.
