#2Just subscribed. Looks like there's some cool stuff coming through. But what really bugs me is that the links in the feed go to undrln.com and not directly to the site that the link's for. Making me click twice is not good. And we all know why they're doing it. Not for the subscriber, that's for sure.

#3The hardest part about building a successful social news is building the community, good luck. Getting marketing and advertising people to remember u-n-d-r-l-n dot com is going to be an effort in itself.

Undrin sounds like a pharmaceutical product. Undrin helps you regain control of your bladder. Side effects include dizziness, headache, nausea.

The feed for HN has two links: one for the site in question, and one for the HN comments. I almost always go for the comments before looking at the site. That, for me, is the real value of HN, and (possibly) for undrln as well.

#8I just think they are too many social something sites out there at this time. The trend should slow down a bit to allow users to awake from the ongoing drunk fest of social tools.

#9Subscribed, looks promising.
Don't like the banner, too much screen real-estate lost, also the give-your-email-and-we'll-send-you-a-password-thing is getting kinda old.

I disagree. The name doesn't really matter (and I'm a brand guy). All that matters is that people find the content useful.
If they don't, we're sunk. That being said, it was a quick build. If it turns out to be a bust, I can live with that. :-)
