Totally a dick thing to say someone who just built something and put something out into the world. Adds no value to the conversation...

...man that sucks. I hate crap like this.

Anyways, Van - I like your site, but you might want to make your value proposition more clear.

"Make new friends, meet old ones, do something fun together" - doing what?

Those are good benefits. But what exactly is the service? Why should the unfamiliar visitor try it out?

Maybe something like, "Use our simple FREE service to make a connection with someone with the same interests in your hometown. Takes 27 seconds to fill out - CLICK HERE TO SEE A DEMO"

I don't know. Something like that. Stronger reason to use the service, more explanation, more call to action. Definitely have analytics, and maybe split-test different variants? Right now I don't know what the site does exactly without diving in, so grabbing someone by the hand right away and making it easy might be good.

"The best FREE way to get a meetup with an old friend, new friend, or date in your city - CLICK HERE to see how it works" - something like that? Play around with it, a stronger call to action and more description might help. Good luck and best wishes.

that's harsh :(
