Just launched hotstagram.com, getting over 500 ratings a second (hotstagram.com)

Anyone have any fun features they'd like to see? We are gathering a massive amount of rating data.

Should integrate with the face.com API and you might find some funny corolations between ratings and certain characteristics detected by the API.

Is it me, or is this a very similar site to Mark Zuckerberg's Facemash? I sense a lack of originality here, at least.

Is there any particular reason why it automatically opens on a female-female comparison? This will simply skew the numbers of ratings per gender.

Also, when first loading the site, the leaderboard for the females first registered +885 for the 'hottest' female, and then upon a reload approximately two seconds later, registered +1,384 for the same female. Also, a few moments ago I noticed it has dropped back to +885. It doesn't seem plausible this particular girl gained that many points in less than ten seconds, even if you are gaining 500 ratings a second as you claim.

Is the best way to spend our time really dwelling on aesthetic differences between people? The moral implications for this site are huge, and you are contributing to the intense pressure many feel to reach a specific aesthetic ideal. Is this really the best way we can spend our time? Surely you can think of better sites to create than this?

The leaderboard won't change very quickly. Make it easy to see (visually and numerically) where ANY specific photo ranks and to scroll through those nearby in the rankings.
