What would you change about the landing page? Thanks HN!

I actually didn't realize at first you could "scroll" from step to step ... I thought the '>' arrow next to the e-mail input was supposed to mean "input your e-mail, then we'll show you the rest!". People like to know what they're signing up for before giving away personal information, right? So my suggestion is make the steps more obvious, i.e. put them all on one page or have a way to scroll through the steps with the e-mail input always visible so potential users can sign up the moment they are interested!
Hope that helped and best of luck!
You might consider a condensed version that has the 5 steps on one page, with just the headings (not all the explanation text), and the call to action.
This seems more like a guided tour for someone that wants more information, when you've perhaps got their interest, it will be great for that on your launched website. Even then, you might want to change "step 1" to "step 1 of 5", etc, to let them know it isn't open-ended, and maybe emphasize your 5 step value proposition.
I was hoping that the "Join and Create Events" paragraph would have sufficed for the condensed version with all 5 steps. I was running out of space in the design as I decided to provide support for 1024x768 browsers.
I'll make a note of the html title tag- nice catch. Thanks for your feedback!
OK, I can see that now -- I think as highlighted points instead of a paragraph, this would be clearer.
And "Grooovy - Create Friendships in 5 Steps" is more impactful and piques more interest (my opinion) as a headline than "Grooovy Lets You Meet New Friends Comfortably at Your Own Pace."
Good luck!
It's a large numbers game... from my blog maybe 1,000 people read the article and of those maybe 20 bought the app.. but the ones who bought it probably recommended it to their friends etc..
contact 50 blogs, it's time better spent than twitting IMHO
Launchingwise, we're already working hard on that. This landing page will also convert to become the product page after the app launches so feedback would still be appreciated.
Does the domain dribbble.com also make you want to enter dribble.com at first glance?

I agree with the comment above on the name, I think many will simply not see the third letter mid-word in both cases. It's probably something with visual perception where you see what you expect, not what is there (... maybe related to how folks miss their own typos ).
