Thanks Simon,

Your first paragraph alone is enough to make me want to dance on my desk! (It’s best for everyone concerned if I don’t do that, though.)

Your reservations are good ones and I’m relieved to find that they are all things we’ve thought about. We’ve deliberately started with a relatively simple, self-contained area because we want this site to be accessible to all our readers.

The platform is capable of much much more – and it’s coming. Some of these things will come in the next few weeks (we have a great feature planned for next week, if all goes to plan) and others will take months.

I’m not sure we realised how massive this site could be when we started out but believe me we’ve realised now. There is a lot of work to be done.
