You'd really benefit by letting people know what this site does. It isn't immediately obvious, and it usually doesn't make sense to have the user presented with a login without any content (if ever). The docs also seem pretty long at first glance. Just a paragraph or so about the goal of the site right on the landing page would help a lot I think.
Thanks for the thoughts. The reason for its lack of sensational front page glamour and glitter is that there has been no reason for it so far (academic endeavors hardly do; we have only provided an RTFD link sadly).
It's simply a resource exchange tool where you input haves and wants and we output a set of matches of mutual relevancy, where each user "picks" from predefined item/skill options users set.
The types of uses are many but for clarity's sake: barter, share, product testing, borrow, and various types of skill exchange.
I apologize for my glaring lack of bravado or salesmanship. However, on the other hand, the service is free.
