Is there someone out there who can tell me why an application that’s almost completely unintuitive as well as user-unfriendly is garnering so much positive attention?
Didn’t think so.

Good point Kevin. And I’m sure his was easier to use too.
Rick, stick an ’s’ on the end and that may serve well as a new name for the service.

Like 99% of computer users out there, I took a five-second look, did not understand what it was for, and subsequently put the site in my mental ‘ignore’ list. So much for that.
