Give the copy of your landing page a plot! There finally might be a better landing page slogan than "The easiest way to ___".

It was a dark and stormy landing page. Rain rolled off the roofs, gathered in the gutters and flowed over my shoes to the drain. I needed lots of things, a drink, a broad, and a gun, but first of all, I needed a mobile app to get me a place to dry off and a really first rate coffee while checking in and getting location points.

Here is that app.

Sounds like a most excellent plan, count me in!

http://diabeti.ca has languished as a landing page for too long. Time to clean it up, get it out there, and get more people using it besides my wife.

So, what if you all oversaturate the market with applications?

Which software niche is not already oversaturated? :)

There aren't many 510(k) submission & workflow apps.

We will be launching http://goodsie.com in November, though it's been in development for over a year now because of various fits and starts! HN will work as a code for anyone who would like to try the beta :)

Your site looks great. All the best !

Tx so much :)

Count me in.. I am looking at couple of ideas myself. would you mind commenting on them @ http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1773435 ?

I have been procrastinating for long and want to do it this time. I was thinking of two ideas as I put in my above link and decided to work on an app for hosting the contests of fellow Startups.
