    Great site. I used to own audiolizer.com that did the same thing but with less features. One thing that worked out really well for us was allowing users to import their itunes libr…

    Good point. I actually added that in because I initially wanted to allow users to select which profile picture they wanted to use. But I decided to drop that feature for the MVP. I…

    Yeah, there was actually an article on this - I'll see if I can dig it up later. It evaluated the performance between asking them to refer right after sign-up vs. after they have t…

    Hi, Amber. Thanks for the comment. 1) I tend to agree with you. There is a lot of text, especially on the homepage. We'll work on cleaning that up. 2) Howl is focused on sharing li…
