However, even here on HN, you'd find that most people are consumers and not contributors. Therefore, getting a sign-up on the homepage and not providing access to the content is likely going to hurt your growth.
I love arrested development, which I saw on your page. So I clicked on it, expecting to get rankings, reviews, or recommendations of other things i might like.
Unfortunately, I didn't get that. So I don't get to try out your technology. I can only see what you liked.
also, why have the type way off on the right hand side (tv show, film)? I had no idea what Angel was, and with the light grey AND the positioning, it took a bit to figure it out. I like the idea that they type isn't blaring out, but I think better placement would improve it.
I assume others have recommended that you provide filters by media type?
