I really think you need to simplify the registration process. Just ask for the bare minimum email & password. I saw the form and ran away. I think I understand the idea from your description but there is no way I would have got that from seeing it. You should make it very obvious as to what exactly people can do here.

Ciao from Utah ;) My mother is from Milano. I also lived there for a few years.

Ciao, thanks a lot for your feedback. You are right, we have to simplify the process. There are some additional fields that we would love to add, such as sexual gender, interests, etc. but I agree with you that we should avoid asking these questions right at the signup process. Maybe we could ask them later or allow the user to update her profile whenever she wants to do so.

Btw, send "un caro saluto" (a dear greeting) to your mom! I am from Milan but I moved to the US four years ago...I miss Milan :-)

Thanks again for the feedback!
