Show HN: FeedSnatch - A Reader for the Lazy. Tear it apart please.

My two bits: It's great that you're having fun developing apps. I can't say much as to the robustness of the app. But, you should not discount the user experience when developing an app.

What does the site do? Why is this easier/better/nicer than X/Y/Z? I have no idea. What need or issue are you trying to address? Why should I use this over other services?

A reader for the lazy would ideally do something like NewsBlur (which is fabulous, BTW) and pick up my feeds from a competing service. Consider providing an 'import from Google Reader' option. You're asking me to add sites one by one, in a non-intuitive manner - if there's only one feed, just let me click 'subscribe' - don't bother giving me a (non) choice.

I like that you're loading the actual site within your app. However, I have a 13" screen at 1280x800 and there's all sorts of scrolling required, which makes for a messy experience. Gets worse when that lower frame is pulled up to view the site. Design for multiple resolutions.

From a usability perspective, the site is confusing. I've spent more time crafting this response than using the site because of this. I could possibly click on things and see what they do, but that's 'risky' and not lazy. For instance:

1. What do the up & down arrows do?

2. What does pull up mean?

3. I clicked on a link in a feed and nothing happened. Oh no, this site doesn't work! (If I hadn't scrolled down, I would not have realized the site had loaded in the lower 'box', which I also had to then 'pull up'. This process is not obvious or easy.) Consider an email inbox view - just titles to click on, and full previews in lower 'box'.

4. Keyboard shortcuts?

5. Why is the default post count only 3? Once read, a post remains in my view instead of minimizing itself. Infinite scrolling would be great to load more posts.

6. UI-wise, what happens once I have 30 feeds? How does your horizontal nav handle that?

There's more obviously, but this hopefully this is a start. It's always easier for someone (me) to criticize, so keep this in mind with my comments.
