I like the idea of this http://www.summize.com pulling in reviews from loads of places and then taking an average.

aye, posting here won't help either.
Frankly it is amazing to see these kind of posts popping up day after day, getting flamed to fuck and people STILL think it is a good idea to post their tat.
bah humbug.

"HMV are building a new site that will help you discover more about the music and films you love."
What? What is it? Why would I sign up? I have no idea what this is, and I'm not about to fill in a long form for... for what? What is it???
That's my reaction to the way the site is presented. Not at all enticing.
- "help you discover more about the music and films you love" last.fm and IMDB?modern

also, adding "beta" to something to try and get (undeserved) attention is getting so utterly cliche. To have it as an integral part of the URL is just plain idiotic - how can that in any way be regarded as "beta"???
Why not have an invite system too and go the whole hog??
grrr.

I take you haven't signed up then emecks? No?

on the registration page, it's asking me how many friends I'm connected to on social networking sites, I'm not registered on any so I can't select any. bah.

"HMV are building a new site that will .... help them expand their potential customer database for free by presenting it as a new social networking website that nobody really needs"

Haven't even looked at it mate.
Ever seen Catherine Tate's granny sketch???
"WHAT A FUCKEN LIBERTY" pretty much sums it up.
As it is Christmas time, the season of goodwill and all, I will take the time to explain why this is:1. http://www.qbn.com/LeeCake/ shows that you have:
1.1 posted 9 links.
1.2 posted one topic.
1.3 and only replied twice, both times in this thread.
this is since signing up in 2006 - ie, you're not really giving anything.2. There has been a ton of people signing up recently specifically to post their tat and try and get interest going.
Simple as that really, contribute here and ask people for a favour now and again and ye will get positive responses otherwise you are destined for cunts like me making comments like these.

You're right, you are a cunt. Would you be happier if I sent you some Cake, cheesecake or chocolate.

^^ hahaha ^^
now see THAT is more inline with "how cake works" (I quote from your "what we do" section):
"....so it's using the world of entertainment as a vehicle to communicate rather than the traditional route which would be to take advertisements on television...."
and THAT is entertaining :D
