Thanks!
Also, FYI, "nursing spots" may be state-law dependent in the US. In California, for example, every public spot is a nursing spot. :-)
I WANT to go Open, and totally would if groceries were also Free and Open and my landlord decided not to charge me rent. We'll see where it goes and how much money promotions and event postings could bring in.
I am glad you are bringing that up though. I should start thinking about it harder.
Re nursing, it turns out from a survey of prospective users of the site that very few people are interested in looking for 'nursing spots'. I initially added it on the advice of a friend who was a very new, shy breastfeeder. I agree on your politics.
I think I get what you are saying, but if you could elaborate on what you mean by this, it would also be helpful!
:)
Logo could use some work. The word (BETA) is too big for my taste.
Either geotarget the location and zoom in there, or start zoomed out more because I live nowhere near where the map is zoomed in at.
These are just a few of my opinions.. nice idea overall.
Were you on a mobile device?
It does/should prompt you to share your location so that it can zoom to your area accordingly. Did it not prompt you? (uh oh)
I'm in Chrome on a 13" MBP. I allowed it, but I think it zoomed in a little too far, you should try giving a wider outlook in the general area the user is located in.
Any plans on how you're going to make this a startup? Making money etc?
Money... not sure yet.
Thinking of charging a couple of bucks for people to post events/extra curricular lessons (festivals, summer camp, karate). Also thinking of charging a couple of bucks for businesses to run promotions in the popup info window of a their place in the map. Maybe later on the data will be useful for real estate, kinda like Walk Score. (??) Im more nerd than business, so I am having to think in new ways on the money question!
