Announcing VouchOn.com (and seeking beta testers)
January 16th, 2007 | by Ryan Stewart |My pal and excellent programmer, Noel, from Southern California and I have been working for the last several months to develop a simple, easy-to-use website called VouchOn.com.
I had the idea for the site during a business trip to Bangor, ME. Lying on the bed at the Holiday Inn and trying to decide where to go for dinner, I thought, “Wouldn’t it be great if I could ask for dinner recommendations from others.” The idea wouldn’t leave me alone so I started looking for a programmer to make the vision a reality.
Noel and I are finally ready to begin testing VouchOn.com and we need your help. If chosen as a beta tester, you’ll be part of an elite group of ninja website testers. All we ask that you do is use the site and report any errors you get using the contact page at http://www.vouchon.com/contact/ – We’d also appreciate knowing if you find anything to be confusing or just plain retarted.
The site is and will remain completely free to use. We appreciate you helping us make it great.
While you’re testing, keep in mind that VouchOn questions/answers can cover any topic – not just food. You might want to know what ballpoint pen is the best for daily use, or the best street porter in Chongqing, China. The possibilties are endless.
Many thanks,
Ryan
P.S. For the record, I chose the Sea Dog Tavern & Brewery in Bangor, ME and I’ll be Vouch(ing) On it as soon as the site goes live.

Nice idea, and the concept is even more powerful.
I read an article on Time’s, it was about the top 10 websites of 2006, bargainist.com was on there because of the nice deals they bring out their huge audience, and while your site is not even out yet, i can definitely see a great potential, especially because of the fact it’s user-generated content.
Keep us posted,
