Great, thanks! Sounds like a good idea, and something I might actually use.
1) I want to be able to upload a list.
99% of the people who start using this site are going to have a bunch of movies already. We're not just starting our collection, so you need to make the "transaction cost" of starting to use your site very low. How many people do you see sitting there entering 100 movies one-by-one?
First get search working well. Then I want to be able to do cd ~/Movies && ls > list.txt, upload that file, and have the movies auto-added to whatever location I type in.
For me, adding the movies is so painstaking that I'm just not going to do it. But if there were an easy way for me to add them, your startup would be pretty useful for me.
2) [deleted and too lazy to change numbering]
3) Search should allow me to put the year of the movie.
I wanted to add "Hannah Montana- The Movie". When I searched "Hannah Montana" (shut up, it's my sister's), a bunch of movies showed up, and I thought putting the year in would narrow it down, but it simply eliminated all the movies (since none of them have 2009 in the title)
I'm not sure if I'm the only user who would try to put the year in, but that's just feedback on how I used your site.
3.1) Search doesn't work very well. A title with a 100% match should usually be the first result, shouldn't it?
3.2) What's "added on" mode? Is this the date the movie was added to your database, because I wouldn't think that has much connection to search relevance.
4) Where do you get the "score" from?
5) Clicking on the heart ("add to wishlist") button should add/remove from wishlist (not just add to it)
It's confusing that the same button does something different whether you're on the "movies" or "wish list" page
6) I initially thought the "comments" was my personal comments, not a social feature.
I personally wouldn't make this a social feature because it's unlikely to ever reach the level of commentary that IMDB or other sites have.
But since it is a social feature, you might want to make this more clear. I was going to put something in there like, "on bottom shelf", or "in thin CD case"
If you think other users might use it for that purpose, but you want to keep the social feature, maybe there should be a "make this comment private" check-box.
Thanks a lot for the comments Frazz, they're definitely great input and I'll try and start working on a lot of the items on the list, especially on the import feature.
Definitely will, it's one of those things you just didn't think about but as soon as someone mentions it, it goes straight to the top of your to-do list. I'll probably be working on it this weekend, so I'll holler asap. Thanks again.
