Good points Jonathan. You guys really just offer an aggregation point with a beautiful interface to customize the presentation layer for said services. I agree with your points too.

Jonathan, anyone who cannot recognize that Flavors brings the ability to create
graphically stunning and functional personal pages to the masses cannot see the forest for the trees, meaning that they have become too adept at technology
to understand that most of us are 'noobs'. I am a noob, who had tried all the so called 'easy' to configure services, but when I found Flavors, looked at the User created sites, I was blown away by what I saw, IMHO big time studio graphic quality. I then played with it just for a few minutes, and I knew Flavors had taken site 'EZ" site creation to a new level. Those of us who are bored with all
the 'new templates and themes' but yet don't have the ability to create something without all the cookie cutter themes, can now create something
we can proud of in minutes, and without valium. Not everyone is a visionary.
Some of these technology 'reviewers' have become technophobes themselves.
Doomed to view everything thru the lens of what came before.
You've got a winner !!! Millions of us noobs will be rooting for you.

Created my site tonight - check it out here: http://flavors.me/HicksNewMedia
I had problems getting the Facebook integration working - hopefully they can get that worked out soon.
I most definitely plan to use this as my quick stop site for folks looking to keep up with my lifestream. Thanks for the heads up Mark

All good and valid issues Robert. Having said that, it will take you less than 10 minutes to create something nice, and we don't store any of your service data. I think that is quite a differentiating proposition – aside from the background image you choose to upload and maybe your description text, we store a nominal amount of your data. Just something to consider, because we would love to have you
