I can't say that this is the site that I've been looking for, but you might be on to something.

However, you have a bit of a catch-22 with respect to the sign-up vs. experience this without signing up.

I didn't sign-up, and therefore, you can't show me anything. You also don't describe anything on your home page, so I don't know if sign-up means I'll need to download a plug-in, no plugin, do I need to tell you how it works.

A good way to demo it for people is to maybe show how many people near them visited your site? They don't need to see the person details. Maybe a 'here is what's popular near you' list, or something like that. Just to get a bit of interest going and show that you have some data.

I think a big thing you've done wrong on your site is the 'these people both read ...'. I don't care what they read if I don't read it. Therefore, if you can show me how it relates to me, that is likely a better avenue I think.
