That you are not serious. I like 4chan and can laugh at pedobear jokes, but no way would I give you any money because you're trying too hard to be one of the cool kids and don't seem to understand or care that it might offend future customers. Keep business and personal stuff separate.
not at all. you're hip and not afraid to publish subtle memes for the sake of others who get the joke.
If this just a fun mashup with no future use no loss. If it's a start of something bigger I got a bad first impression. Your not serious about the site.
I honestly thought you got xss until I saw the image was in img/smallpedo.
Additionally, the very first image I saw in the google maps view was a pornographic shot of a woman.
I don't know if I happened to stumble upon an actual ebay item that was somehow using female full frontal nudity, or what... but between that and pedobear, I ain't goin' back.
Besides, I've seen this exact mashup before in a number of forms (hooking to ebay, googlemaps, and sometimes to other third party retail APIs) so I'm not sure what the point is. It's an undifferentiated product entering an existing market... and frankly, it seems less useful than the standard ebay API, where I can switch to distance specific search if there are too many results overall.
When I hover on an item in the list pane, on the right I see the bubble over the pin. The bubble contains the picture of the auction item but does not contain the ebay link. Now if I click on a pin directly, I see only one or more ebay links without any pictures. Just make both of these views of the bubble a bit more similar.
I sat on the homepage for a minute trying to think of something I wanted to buy. You should offer some suggestions.
You're making me choose a category before I see the results? And also confusing me with text about getting spammed? I think some UI to allow people to narrow their search like "Show more items like these" would be better.
Other than that, it's pretty good. I loved seeing pictures of the items when I hovered over them. I'm usually not concerned about where an item is located when I shop on eBay (since I usually just get it shipped), but this provides a sort of craigslist-style take on it.
Also, the site has a bug where if you don't type in a location nothing happens. Seeing as it wasn't immediately clear to me what the site was, that kinda a problem.
