Any thoughts onto providing a friction-less signup? E.g. Twitter OAuth, Facebook Connect, Clickpass? I want to post something and vote up something, but this is just yet another site on the internets that I don't know yet if I will keep coming back to (thus I don't want to sign up).
Over time if I see myself coming back to read stuff, vote stuff, submit stuff, then I'd be more willing to sign up and register; but right now it doesn't yet pass my threshold for wanting to sign up. However, if there was those one-click options, it'd be painless for me to do so and I would do it.
Which is kind of a paradox, because I can't submit or vote unless I'm already signed up. The only thing I can do without signing in is read. So I'd have to find myself constantly coming back for good stuff, and then decide that I do want to associate myself with the site, and want to get some good karma on it, to sign up and vote/submit. And right now it's to early to tell.
