The advantage is you have to own you words - no gratutious trashing of other people. StartupToDo.com will also require a login name of your choosing not to mention charging you :).

I couldn't even LOOK at StartupToDo.com without creating an account. No thanks. You’re missing the biggest problem with the BOS forum: It now requires you to log in in order to participate.

That's impressive. I clicked into this article from RSS expecting to see an apologetic explanation for BOS. This however is very positive. Well done. Excellent idea. Impressive resource! OK, Bob.

In fact I would be a bit stronger about the BoS forum; the noise to content ratio is perhaps what you would expect from a public (and hence trollable) forum. Although there are many strong contributors they are generally few in number compared to the less constructive others. Now your site on the other hand - I really like. It looks quick and easy to complete, is non-threatening and looks like it would get the main points covered. I'm really interested to see how this site itself goes :) Just a suggestion, but why not "dogfood" your own service and get people to rate your site? :) Cheers, Mike Hi Bob,
