Painful mobile experience. Have very little idea what the site does. Seems to maybe scrape meta data of random pictures and transpose them on maps using geolocation data. This is a screenshot of your landing page viewed on ios http://imgur.com/eBfi0KJ. The social icons and kickstarter pledge cover the nav bar, and the text has no contrast. If you want to have an immersive experience that throws the user in, you need to clear the nav bar so they can atleast go to the about page after the initial novelty has worn off. Also, I think it would be nice if you had some fading text on page load like "the data of 1 million cats visualized" something to clue you in to what you are looking at. Haven't had the chance to view on pc yet, but if I was a potential user, I never would.


It seemed quite broken on WP8 too, looked pretty much the same and it didn't seem to want to load another image after the initial load (though this may have been a connectivity problem)
