One thought on “Phrot – The Social Way To Blog”

  1. When you visit the site, is it immediately clear what we do?
    Yes being it’s obvious you blog. There needs to be something more about the fact that people don’t have to find people to share it with an that you guys do it for them.  It needs more emphasis on it so that way people don’t overlook it.
    Do you think you would ever have a use for this site?
    Of course, I love to blog.
    Post a blog and maybe a few comments, is there anything that annoys you about how the site is set up?
    Absolutely.  I dislike that we have to wait on your invite to experience the site.  There should be a sign up process on the home page so that way we can quickly access the site.
    Is there any feature that you really miss and couldn’t use the site without?

    Just the fact that we don’t have to find people an if are blog gets a lot of points it stays on the front page.
    Please share any additional feedback/comments you might have. Be frank.
    The video during the sign up could use some better graphics.  Since everybody’s blog will be shown you could still add a friends option such as google connect.
