I understand your motivation for requiring a Facebook login, but I want you to know that it immediately turned me away from your service, which sounds like it could be really cool.

I agree with you on this. Requiring facebook credential to log in is a big turn off for the kind of crowd that will use this service so I think you should give people the option of using other credentials to log in like twitter and google accounts.
