Listango – A Better Way to Bookmark

4 thoughts on “Listango – A Better Way to Bookmark”

1. 1) Visit our home page – what is your initial impression of what you see?
   I really like the homepage of Listango, it’s a clean look, all of the information needed is right there, no crazy colors, looks very professional. What I love most about it that it is all fit above the fold, so that there isn’t even any necessity to scroll down. I like that you have a link to a video to review the features of Listango further for those who may not be convinced with the 3 features listed below the image. 
   2) Are you encouraged to sign up for Listango? Can you tell us why (or why not)?
   Yes, I am encouraged to sign up for Listango, not only because it looks like a useful service, but also because the Sign Up button stands out with its green color versus the rest of  the page. Great design choice.
   3) Sign up for Listango, it’s free! After registering, are the instructions clear to use our application? Was anything confusing?
   I signed up for Listango and the 3 step instructions are straightforward. There is really nothing confusing nor anything one can do wrong. The only recommendation I would have it to offer a support link on the right bottom for anyone who may have questions.  
   I really like that you start people out with two bookmarks (your blog and your Facebook page). it kind of gives everyone an idea of how it is supposed to look if a bookmark is added correctly.
   4) Go to the search engine of your choice and find another online bookmarking tool. Compare our sites. Which do you prefer? Why?
    I found Diigo as another online bookmarking tool through Google: https://www.diigo.com/
   In comparison of the two homepages, I like the color choice of Listango better. I also like that all of the information is above the fold versus scrolling down to see more information on Diigo. Their image is blue as well as their logo and font, so the small sign up button can be easily overlooked. So as a new user to other sites I am much rather encouraged to sign up for Listango.
   What Diigo does offer though is a larger variety of social sign-ups, they have twitter, Facebook,  Google and Yahoo. And finally, they have instant credibility with their awards and press mentions listed.
   Eventually it would be great for Listango to be able to add that somewhere on the site. 
   5) Please share any additional feedback/comments you may have.
   I know from experience that users like customization, so if there is any possible way to add a few different color choice or templates of the user dashboard within Listango once logged in, that would be great.

   I thought the home page was visually appealing.  The video was a great idea and an awesome illustration of what the web site provides.  It is very professional, and no unecessary clutter.

   I will definitely be signing up for Listango.  Right now, I am overwhelmed by the amount of things I have saved throughout my computer.  The list of favorites and short cuts on my desk top are out of control and totally disorganized.  
    
   3) Sign up for Listango, it’s free! After registering, are the instructions clear to use our application? Was anything confusing?

   The sign-up process was pretty self-explanatory.  I signed up via Facebook and the instructions were simple and to the point.  I appreciated the step by step directions.
    
   4) Go to the search engine of your choice and find another online bookmarking tool. Compare our sites. Which do you prefer? Why?

   I compared  three bookmarking tools.  Diigo was pretty impressive.  I like the cloud feature that enables you to sync computer, ipad, iphone, etc…  But I realize there is an additional charge for this service.  For me, the cloud feature is not necessary.  The bookmarking tool on my PC is sufficient.  I did not like the Delicious home page, and feel it is too basic and not really clear about what it offers.  The last site I visited was Mister Wong.  This page felt cluttered and too wordy for me.    My top two favorites are Listango and Diigo.
    
   5) Please share any additional feedback/comments you may have.

   Again,  I enjoyed and appreciated the video illustration of what the site does.  But I am a visual learner, so I prefer seeing the action vs. hearing or reading it.  Perhaps it would be beneficial to have other explanations available.  Maybe, another video with someone explaining some of the features, or walking people through the process.  Also, it would be a good idea to have a  Faqs section with commonly asked questions/answers.   

   I don’t know if I’ll be receiving a welcome e-mail, but that would be helpful again, especially if it includes another reminder of the site’s features and capabilities.
