Ask HN: Review my web app, AreaTeams

Also (as frossie alluded to) you need an input to allow searching by location. Don't worry about zip code vs city, etc. Pass the data from the search box to the google api and it will do the rest.

Increase the scope to include college games, and include non-mainstream sports (rugby, volleyball, etc.), ditch the map as the main site nav, and you might have something.

And yea, ditch the adwords until you get traffic. I thought it was seo at first.

not that focusing on the majors is bad -- it's a good idea -- i just thought it worth mentioning that the word "area" conjured up high school and not majors for me.

(I have no comment on the actual usefulness of this thing, not being a sportsgoer)

You need to ensure that the time zones stay local to the map shown, as well as what the others have said. Finally, link to tickets or something.

I'm in Raleigh, NC, and since I see nothing available in my area, I probably won't return.

If you dont mind me asking, do you plan on generating revenue through ads, being a middle-man to Ticketmaster, or ____ ?
