Hello blog readers. I've noticed there are a bit more of you lately since I've been baring my soul and all that, so I thought maybe I'd try to take advantage of you. I'm rushing to put together the PublicSquare website, that will introduce folks to Cuina Media's first product. I used thinkature (a really cool ap.. no, a really cool WEB 2.0 ap) to do a loosey-goosey IA. Now for the part where I make you work:

1. What did I forget
2. and can you please critique my writing, as I produce it?

So in otherwords, maybe you-all can help me figure out how to explain this nifty thing to the public, and why it is different. Up for it?

The benefits are totally missing. Seems like those would be the focus of the site. Feels totally PS/Cucina/Tech focused, but not customer/publisher-focused at all.

IMHO, this is the key point: "PublicSquare makes your life as a publisher easier. Stop wasting time on the mechanics, and spend your time on the stories and the people."

But your site map ignores the stories and the people.

An interactive walk-through would clinch it. Let users set-up a site (maybe choosing from common types like webzine, small org, community, etc.) and then choose features (articles, comments, ideas, events, jobs, etc.) and then have the simulation show how the site would work given those pieces. A flash movie with parameters set by your visitor.

At the same time it demonstartes PS capabilities, it communicates that PS "works for you".
