daneuman··on Ask HN: Review my startup, NewsQast - local news, weather, traffic, and more
Thanks for the feedback, I knew the landing page wasn't great. I like the recommendation by japhyr to use the sources as filter items so a user can tailor the view to their interest.

In terms of landing page, would you rather see a list of buttons with the available locations or I was thinking of having a map that highlights the areas covered and allow a user to click on a pin or popup link over an area when they hover over it. Then it would be 'Get news, weather...etc' and a map with locations or a list of buttons with locations.

I also like the idea of submitting personal zipcodes to weigh the demand for locations not already setup.
