Neat project. For what it's worth I want to poke around at it to discover "what kind of places might you recommend near me" to find out if I'm interested but I don't want to sign up without any sense of its value so I just closed the page.

Thanks! And I completely agree, I generally do the same. I don't sign up without a sense of the value.

I put the sign up wall - reluctantly - recently because people are not inclined to suggest their favorite quiet spots. And I need to grow the quiet map to make it liveable for me. Currently its all on my dime & time.

It needs to stay a free platform for users. It's not the affluent that live next to railways, share rooms, can escape to the countryside.

So I put the sign up wall so I at least have the possibility to send an email every once in awhile, to reach out to the interested users. To encourage them to add a quiet spot. I have not send such email since I created it 7 months ago.

I'm not happy with this "solution" but have not found a better way. Would welcome any advice or input.

ps: If you like, I'll send you an entry code.
