Huge fan of Product Hunt. Show HN is great, but PH just makes it too easy to quickly discover, comment on, and share new products. Not to mention, the community there seems more "real" thanks to names/profile pics.
Can you explain this? I've looked at the site a long time ago and again today, and I still don't see any way to sign up (for an account, not the newsletter) or suggest products.
(1) control the quality of submissions (if everyone had access it would be all self-promotion and
(2) reduce the number of products posted (with its current design, the feed wouldn't scale if 100+ products were submitted each day)
Please add your name here if you're interested and we'll drop you a note once it's opened up further: http://bit.ly/ph-contributor
