I like the website very much. Its set up neatly, so youll find everything without any trouble. The structure off the profiles are pretty good aswell, they give a gernell idea weither you would get allonw with the people or not most of the times. Turning it up a notch Id love to see an app so you wont always have it open a web browser. I havent really tried the premium version, but thats mostly because I see no reason for me to purcase it.
