Hey buddy, Thanks for the feedback. We've gotten a lot of the feedback. What we did was make the frontpage more clearer. It used to be images/videos on the frontpage, but they were now replaced by Product Boxes. Pre-ordering is cu

horyd, thanks for the feedback. We'll definitely be making it more translucent. We realize the need to make the pictures speak for themselves. Thanks so much for this. If you have any other observation, I would love to hear about them.

Hi xauronx, Thanks for the feedback. What you say actually confirms what we've been hating ourselves! What we're gonna be doing is making the pics less dark when hovering over. We're also gonna be pushing the buttons to the t

RossH, That's freaking awesome feedback. It's awesome because we're actually gonna be modifying the hover over the items. (I've realized that I hate it too!) Feel free to email me personally. I would love to provide you

Hi, thanks so much for the feedback. We're not trying to be Pinterest for men. While the frontpage may seem similar to them, our content really centers around future products. In the process, what we're trying to do is to get a go

That's a good question. Firstly, Metacritic focuses its score/reviews of critics and not really the public. Hypejar on the other hand, focuses on the level anticipation of the general public before a product releases. Secondly, Hypejar focu

$80k goal sounds slightly modest for a mass consumer tech product like FloJack. Anyways, I would definitely get it. That is, until Apple themselves don't somehow implement this. Best of luck to you guys. I always root for Kickstarter compan

how about facebook taking over as the "ultimate social environment" to whatever it is right now? reason why i throw that out there is because it has many functions all in one: email, photos, IM, etc.

i think him and his team have done a great job with facebook. although he does lack on the public speaking front, he does compensate for it. bill g. was once just an inarticulate, uncharismatic, scrawny geek, but numbers show that he hasn't

that story is either fiction or that specific millionaire is dumb. it takes a significant amount of time (i.e. several minutes to hours to days) to get a loan. a person driving a ferrari would not invest the time for that amount of money.

That may be one of the indicators (and a shallow indicator at that) of success, but I'd be hard-pressed to use it as a threshold or a point of satisfaction in terms of success. Wouldn't a start-up have much more meaning to a founder? Norma
