I completely agree with your point. It seems to me that a vast number of authors/writers (especially apparent in journalists here in Norway) fetishize their own voice, and become so enamored with it that they neglect their actual subject matter.

I don't want to read your irrelevant anectode or clever ironic remark, I want to learn about the subject you promised me.

That sounds like a great idea! About the registration though, it's just linking your google account (which is not mentioned at all, I realise) - so basically two clicks.

I love doodle, and I wish there was a way to create polls there as well!

Thanks for all the comments!

I mostly made the website for the laughs (i.e. the rocket ship), but I'll definitely make it more user friendly as I increment on the (still rather silly) design, taking your comments into account.

As for the login hassle, it's basically just linking your google account (two clicks, no need to write down anything) - but I do get the point about making polls as a guest before registering.

Anyway - appreciate all the feedback!

I love how microsoft.github.io redirects to microsoft.com/openness which instantly brings back the feel of webdesign from the 90s. In my opinion they could've made a statement here, actually demonstrating by example that they're moving away from their previous corporate image, with a nice landing page, ala facebook react's github.io page.
