Mike, you are absolutely right. One of the things we will do before launching publicly is expanding the FAQ as well as some sort of tour that explains what Toluu does and why it is useful.

Is there a particular part of the app that took a lot of time to grok?

Cableston,

Now you're part of the conversation, I would suggest you try to focus on making Toluu more intuitive. Right now, it requires an investment (time) to get value from it. It needs to be easier to use. A robust FAQ would be a step in the right direction.

Sorry to be late to the conversation, was traveling yesterday.

Thank you so much for the fantastic feedback guys. We are still in our private beta and working to get Toluu ready for primetime. We continue to release updates almost everyday.

Corvida, I agree that there a certainly UI and interaction improvements to make to Toluu. We agree that some items are a bit too far removed and we are working to balance the instant availability of the info you want vs. the clutter of too many items on the page.

We are working to find other ways to keep your feeds in sync with your feed reader. We know this is one of the most important things to use Toluu effectively.

We also know that the matching can be slow for users with more than a few hundred feeds. We are working to correct this and increase the speed for the site in general.

We're all on our computers too much. Twitter might be helpful for finding
individuals with more outdoor interests.

Is there anyone Toluu that likes cycling/running/adventure sport blogs? I have no matches. :(

I actually had a problem where Firefox was blocking the “pop-up” Toluu was doing for opening the Google Reader subscribe screen. For some reason, even though “block pop-ups” was turned off, when I clicked the “Add to Toluu” button the new window would be blocked. I think it was a Firefox thing, but I didn't have time to troubleshoot, hence why I just started subscribing the old-fashioned way an am now out of sync (or was – I just re-uploaded my OPML to Toluu).
