Your comment doesn't make any sense.
The comment made sense to me. The technical approach of filming on a white background so there are no borders on the video is neat. The content of the video felt inauthentic.

#73OK, I haven't had time to download the app, but was curious about the description > PIZZA COMPASS IS THE EXCITING NEW LIFE-AFFIRMING IPHONE APP THAT HELPS PIZZA GET TO YOUR MOUTH.

...I started my software company to make something exactly like this in design, concept and application as a birthday present for my wife.
We've come a long way since then, to say the least :)

#74Ok, HN, I'm obviously missing something so please enlighten me. Why is this on the front page? I thought that it might be a joke as some people suggested , but it's not, there's an actual app that you can download on iTunes. So... I just don't get it. Why is this important?
Everyone is always asking to get their problems solved but it shows how you don't always need a problem.

No, its not obvious. I personally thought it was that, hoped it was that, but nothing on that site told me what you just did. I had to half work it out, half guess.
The difficulty in finding information just makes you more interested in it. Growth hacking 101.

Also interested in their business model and how they plan to achieve profitability. Any VC worth their weight wouldn't touch a startup like this with a 10-foot pole. We all saw what happened to Groupon and their approach in dealing with small and independent restaurants.
Why would I as a pizza shop owner want to join your network? Are there systems in place to ensure that demand does not exceed supply? How do you ensure that a certain standard of pizza quality is met by all members of the pizza network?
I'd like these questions answer before you get me to download your app to find pizza.
