  1. 1) Look around the home page – what is your initial impression of what you see?
    The huge space image was the first thing I noticed on the page. It made me confused for a moment on how it connects to bookmarking but it was intriguing at the same time. I must add though that I found the spinning to be slightly dizzying.
    Before reading anything I thought that there are already other established bookmarking sites. Why would I need another one? But as I mentioned earlier, I was intrigued by the space and alien theme so that I started exploring more of the page.
    Scrolling down, I immediately got the idea behind Anunnaki. The information provided was clear and easy to understand. The video was also a big plus. It’s great to see a demo provided.
    The layout of the homepage is also clean and easy to follow.

    2) Think of something you want to find on this website. Now try to find it. Did you find what you were looking for? Was anything confusing?
    The features of Anunnaki were stated clearly in the homepage but it did raise a few questions such as will I still be able to access my bookmarks in a different computer? What if I stayed too long in a page such that Anunnaki stores it when I don’t even want to bookmark it? Is this service free?
    I tried re-watching the video and it did answer partly my second question. I saw on the demo that there was an option to exclude websites. I’m guessing the only way to find out is by signing up for an invite.

    3) Are you encouraged to (create a new account, subscribe, sign up for a free trial, etc.)? Can you tell us why (or why not)?
    Yes. I find this kind of service as something that can be really helpful. I’ve already tried bookmarking sites before but I find them too clunky to use. Automatic bookmarking is something new to me and appears to be better than the other services I have tried. I also like the feature of integrating it with the search results. I think this is really handy cause sometimes I find myself searching through my bookmarks and history, wondering on which site I have seen a particular piece of info.

    4) Go to search engine of your choice and find one other company that offers a similar service. Compare the two companies. Which on do you prefer? Why?
    I couldn’t find a site that offers automated bookmarking so I ended up on Pinboard.in
    Pinboard.in offers a lot more features but since it isn’t automated, it still has the hassle of requiring users to click a bookmarklet and enter the needed titles and tags. And because of this I would still prefer to go with Anunnaki. Since it is still in Alpha, I would not worry about the features as there are still more to come (as mentioned in the homepage).

    Automatic bookmarking sounds like a really good idea. It just makes me wonder if I might end up with bookmarks I don’t really want.
    I was intrigued by the space and alien theme so that I continued reading. I think this is a great idea to get people to explore and try out your site. It’s also great that you explained the origin of Anunnaki. I think that it is something that will catch on.
    I think one issue here might be the privacy of the users. What information is stored? Will others be able to access or see your bookmarks? Users who are particular about their privacy might find this a turn off since there isn’t any info regarding this on the site.
    I could not replay the video without reloading the page. There is no way for me to close the “Sign up for an invite!” message. I find this a bit of a hassle to do.
    Just a little note, under the “Integratable” section, “whether” is misspelled as “weather”. Though you might want to know about it.
    The site is interesting to explore. The info provided is direct to the point and the layout is clean, making it easy to navigate around the page. I just had a little problem with the spinning image and some questions which I could not find an answer to. But all in all, I think Anunnaki is a great site.

  2. 1) Look around the home page – what is your initial impression of what you see?
     As I scrolled around your page I was both impressed and confused as to what it is that you offered and what makes this service of some interest to me. I am a avid web user and bookmarking is an important thing to me but I must admit that in writing your site didn’t really give me a reason to change. I was intrigued only after watching the video which effectively made the service appealing to me. 
    2) Think of something you want to find on this website. Now try to find it. Did you find what you were looking for? Was anything confusing?

    In order to find anything on the website I had to scroll about this one page, there was no search engine nor was there any tabs indicating subjects that are discussed. I was looking for reviews from people who have the service and are either happy or not content. I did find the ‘contact us’ option which was the second thing I looked for. 
    3) Are you encouraged to (create a new account, subscribe, sign up for a free trial, etc.)? Can you tell us why (or why not)?

    I wasn’t encouraged until I saw the video, the part of the video that interest me or made things clear to me was having Anunnaki bookmark something automatically through Google and then all we have to do is search for it. Anunnaki is tabbed on the side but Google results are not affected. 
    4) Go to search engine of your choice and find one other company that offers a similar service. Compare the two companies. Which on do you prefer? Why?

    I chose to visit Skloog and from the get go I saw that this site offered nothing different from the bookmarking and organizational devices that my internet browser already offers. I was not impressed with the layout which seemed lazy and unattractive nor with the service. I preferred your ‘wow’ but simplistic approach to your website and your service actually feels like a change.   
    5) Please share any additional feedback/comments you may have.

    I would like it if your site offered a search option and I also would like to see comments from normal people, I like readings reviews from normal  people so that I may see if it is a service that is as good in paper as it is in practical use.
