		<description><![CDATA[Hey Chris,

Great site in business plan and concept. I think once you work on the execution a bit more it could be profitable. 

I was curious, how much did Stymee charge in creating a web 2.0 enabled site like that?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Cool idea. If you can get a buzz should get some good quality traffic. 

Designs wise I think some improvements are needed.
- Text in top nav seems too high, needs to be brought down a few pixels. (I use Firefox 2.0)
- Text bit of the logo is awesome, the apple has a weird facial expression though and it somehow seems tacky. Good idea to use an apple face though.
- One of the top adsense ads on the homepage has gotta go. I know my sites are full of ads, but this is a brand new site, read your own advice.
- Automatic choosing upon clicking the option would be best way, rather than clicking choose. (I love the sad apple that comes up when you get it wrong though, as well as answer description and comments bit)
- I&#039;m not keen on the background, especially how it merges with the curved corners at the top.
- Not keen on how the articles section is displayed
- Or the quizzes page
- Find nutrition info search doesn&#039;t work on the forums

I&#039;ll leave it for you and others to make suggestions for content and community matters.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The design looks good...simple and fresh. I don&#039;t like the Apple logo much though.

Is an interesting site and concept. Im definitely interested in knowing how the site will perform.

Just curious, but how do you arrived to the conclusion that it could be one your top earners?


BTW: the &quot;like to cook&quot; link doesn&#039;t work.]]></description>

Looking good so far.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[hey, nice site.  One suggestion I have is to make the next quiz show up on the same page as the answer to the previous quiz.  It was a bit of a bugger to click the next quiz link when I was done.  Just a thought.

Also, I just happened upon your blog and was wondering if you could share some of the other sites you have developed and manage. Email me or whatever. Take care :)]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Also in regards to the other community features, you need to be careful with doing too much at launch. Just like how it is recommended you do not open a new forum with dozens of subforums, the vast complexity and depth of your forum will make it seem emptier, which is not conducive to growth. You need to add features and capacity gradually as your community grows.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ahh well, there is a little more confusion...

This isn&#039;t my &quot;big launch&quot; this is my &quot;soft launch.&quot;

This is my launch to my fellow website publishers, not the public at large. I won&#039;t be doing any heavy promotion on it yet, I want at least 100 quizzes for then, and I have 13 or 14 now. Once I reach that stage I plan a promotion blitz with social media, bloggers, and press releases. Consider it a beta if you will. It is to the point where I want the public to play with it, but not quite for wide release.

Though, having it seem like a bigger company isn&#039;t my main goal. I said that in my blog as an example of what you can do by putting more effort into it. I do think it looks like the product of a larger company, but large is subjective afterall and I&#039;m not talking about say looking like the product of a billion dollar publishing conglomerate. 

I also will not be doing any design changes, I am very pleased with the design and everyone else I&#039;ve asked mirrors my thoughts. I may tweak ad placements, but the overall design is firm.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ok that is fair, but realize I am commenting on the site you launched, not what was intended.

If user submitted content outside of the forums was never intended, then its a critique that doesn&#039;t apply even though I still feel it is crucial. I never meant actually SUBMITTING quizzes... but articles and comments count as content.

By just vbulletin, I&#039;m referring to vbulletin in its current launch state on your site, not what it is becoming or the add-ons and mods you may or may not install.

In a nutshell, I think you&#039;re launching too early. More attention to presenting your brand and purpose need to be displayed. Probably a re-design too...

All of this is centered towards your desire to make it look like a bigger company. I don&#039;t think that is being demonstrated as well as it could be.

Not only is the name awesome, but the domain was available. I just think it is time you took a step up in design and branding, as this project deserves it and needs it. You&#039;ve talked about this area before, how certain web products get tons of hype because they are properly represented. NutriQuiz deserves that.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Well, I think we&#039;re running under slightly different definitions of Web 2.0, user submitted content, outside of the forums (which could be expanded into blogs/wikis with vbulletin add-ons, and vb7 is looking a lot like myspace/social media sites, so I wouldn&#039;t say &quot;Just vbulletin&quot;), has never been intended for this site. Users can certainly submit quiz ideas, but having them actually submit quizzes would be asking for a bit much considering there is image work and fact checking involved with making them. I consider it web 2.0 through the interactivity of the quizzes, the integration with social networking sites. The prominent user membership commenting, and of course the design.

The homepage will have textual content added to it that should lessen the feeling of too much adsense.]]></description>
