It looks really polished. the work you've put into it shows.

I think you'll find people love/hate the design, but you can put me in the 'love' side. that goes for the image in the footer too. Did you do all your own artwork?

Only question is, I'm not really sure what I'm supposed to be doing.

oh, who wrote all the articles? Can't see a byline on them. Surely not you (based on the amount of work required)?




many thanks for the compliments.

The design was done by Julien Morel,(joolz.fr), the same guy who did the previous design of Matt Mullenweg(http://ma.tt/). he has done a lot of great design for a few french sites as well. You should check his portfolio. He is a nice guy. He is now working on a costumed page for my twitter account (@exaggerated_com).

Content creation has been a nightmare to produce this far. Spotlights are easy to generate, cause they are aggregated live in our admin database and are all pre-populated.

Original content however is something really difficult to produce on a daily basis. I had a redditor to produce the articles, I used to pay him like 800$per month. but he cashed in the money before xmas and never re-appeared... I have just found a great content provider now who is charging me 5$/article.

Definitely creating a startup has been hard as hell!

I am a private banker/ portfolio manager in Geneva Switzerland. I founded the site just for fun during my spare time.

glad you enjoy it.
