  The site tells me nothing about the app. "Share and meet new friends", okay well who are they and how does it match me to people? Can I chat with people I already know? How does this differ to all the other chat apps already out there?

  Not only do I not really understand what the app is / why I should get it, I'm totally confused by the Pinterest homepage which seems to have nothing to do with meeting new people.

  I'm grossed out by the Male/Female symbols on the page. Are they necessary? What about the few people that don't identify as gender binary? Also isn't this just a cutesy version of Grindr?

  So LINE (http://line.naver.jp/en/) for a more US-centric audience? What kind of plans do you guys have with this?

  This is possibly the worst example of feature creep I've ever seen. What used to be a simple image host is now trying to be both Pinterest and Instagram at once.
