this may sound bumb, but ... with all the designy ui and pristine graphics and all... after staring at it for 10 seconds I still have no idea what is this all about. Everything is way too spaced out and I need to dig deep. For most users these days means they simply leave your site.

#22I don't really get what the site is about. Sure I can "Drag & drop anything anywhere", but why would I want to spend my day dragging and dropping things around? What does the dragging and dropping enable me to do?

#23I'm not sure how you want us to rate you? On a scale from 1 to 5? 1 to 10? 1 to 100? Immediately some things come to mind. Why would I want this? Why would I need drag and drop functionality when I already have that? I had to spend a minute or so "analyzing" your landing page to surmise that this is some type of mashup of clip to Evernote and pocketapp?
Additionally the video on the landing page takes up 1/2 of the "above the fold" on my 27" screen. That seems like a lot of screen real estate to give over to a video of someone surfing the web in a nice house...
Thanks for your comments! I've dragged them to my feedback folder. (that's one of the use cases :))

#24What is the purpose of this landing page? If it's to get new users to sign up, "Get started" should literally allow me to get started - i.e perform a step that is absolutely necessary towards using the product, not create an account. So something like installing a browser plugin and/or a sandbox to try the product out - basically anything that gets me to my "aha" moment - would work better imo. I think that would the…
Hmm... didn't test for this. We are doing some integrations with 3rd parties. Will try this on their landing pages.
Thanks!

#25I think you should increase the focus on being multi-device. You're competing (I think) with Evernote and Pocket for example, both have outstanding cross-platform capabilities.
This looks fantastic when I want to save something from my laptop browser, but increasingly I find myself saving from a mobile. This is fine for Pocket or Evernote, I just share it to their app, but that's not an option here. I'm also not convinced from your landing page that I can have a satisfactory reading experience on mobile, you don't show that at all. You say I can access the data - but assuming you do have a good mobile reading view, you should show that.

#26The main text says "Drag & drop anything anywhere," so naturally I selected some text on the site and tried to drag it around. Nothing happened.
We were thinking about it, but we figured it will confuse users as they will think that you can sort of drag&drop things only on Dragdis. I know not the most intelligent thought to have, but it's really not clear for average user that you need to visit some other website and drag there. And this would only confuse them even more.

I did the same thing.
If you're going to the site with no prior knowledge of what it is and follow the instructions, it seems broken.

#28confusing. the background video got my attention but didn't really tell me what you're selling. clicked the get started button... create an account ? no. so back. looked closely at the text to find out it's a browser extension... that was the bit of info I would've liked to see earlier...

It's a bit different then this :) We will integrate with Evernote and Pocket so everything from desktop will go to those apps were you said already have a great reading experience.
We have strong mobile strategy, but at the moment focusing to "nail" the desktop experience.
Thanks! http://dragd.is/iY2XH
