I apologize for this being offtopic, feel free to downvote me for it, but are there any other websites like this one? (Follow lists instead of status updates).
I've been working on http://thingist.com/ for a few months now (and showing HN along the way) and this website is pretty much a direct copy of it (down to having the name of the site as a dictionary word at the top of the page, which is what it looked like last time I showed anybody here)
I'm just asking because I think it's a cool idea (which is why I'm working on it) and am curious to see how other people are approaching it.
(I also think it's kindof a shitty move to copy something that closely)
Listered is actually my website. And the whole point is that it stores data as objects. You make up with a list consists of by defining the properties of the items in the list and then always enter data in that list according to that blueprint.
I never heard of thingist till now but it seems like its lists of text?
A couple of tips, though: you need to make it easier to add things to the lists. I registered an account, and cannot figure out how to add an item, or how to then call that list back up.
It also seems to be presenting me with the landing page despite having already registered.
It is a nice design, though. Kudos on that :) (The things popping up at me as I was interacting with it was nice)

You then add items according to those properties. Look at the example: http://listered.com/view/cat/Articles/
Say I start at the website's root...what do I click on now?
So you go to Lists. or follow this link http://listered.com/users/edit.php/
