Firefox 4.0.1.
Ubuntu 10.04.
I don't golf and I don't know anything about colors.

Pardon the following stream of consciousness.

I like the colors, the prominent Big Orange Button, the name and the uncluttered layout.

Is your font source so important that, among all the elements of all your pages, this is the one thing you can see at any screen size and scroll position? More important than Create Event and Login (see next para)?

None of your text or blocks re-flow if I have a small screen or if I simply resize my browser down, so you have to side-scroll. The Create Event and Login links at the top right disappear behind a scroll. There's nothing about your text that requires it be in lines that exact length, and there's nothing about your six flagged features (the bottom_feature divs) at the bottom that require them to be in two lines of three; they could re-flow.

Coming Soon, Auto Tee Times. "We make your tee times." Does that mean you actually secure the reservation at the course? You could charge money for that feature.

Create Event: I like that you can see most of what you can do without creating an account and logging in.

The Name and Email text fields extend way out of the Your Info column, into the Itinerary column.

Not sure I like one long column of blocks on the left on Create Event, and a column of just one block on the right.

The url for Create Event is /event/new. If you go to that url, and then manually to /event (by deleting "/new" in the address bar, or using the Uppity addon in Firefox), you display the root page and the formatting gets fubarred. If you're on the root/home page and then manually go to /event, you display the root page and the formatting is fine.

However: If you go to the Login page, /account/login_new, and then manually go up to /account, you get redirected to /account/login_new. Same if you manually go from / to /account, the same redirection. I think this is better behavior than /event/new in the previous paragraph.

Login page: On the scale of security, this is a minor issue, especially on a non-critical site like yours. I tried to reset my password with a fake, non-existent account, iamfake@example.com. After clicking, the page tells me there is no account with this email. What if I wasn't iamfake, but wanted to know whether iamfake had an account on this site or not? You just told me. Anyone else want to comment on this information leak? I see it a lot elsewhere. A better response would be to say something like "If this account exists, we have sent email ..." regardless of whether there is such an account.

I created an account. An entire 15 seconds has gone by, and I still haven't received the confirmation email! :) Seriously, I hate this. When I create an account (anywhere) it's because I'm so interested that I want to do stuff now. (still no email). I'm always curious, in general, why these things take so long. Is it by design, to fight spam bots, or do you (and others) outsource this and your service just takes its own sweet time? Or is it just an unavoidable condition of email?

In general I think this is an unfortunate hurdle in an otherwise smooth and inviting (inviting almost by definition, since I'm taking the time to sign up) site and process. I wonder how many potential customers/users are lost at this stage? (still no email ...)

We have email! I didn't time it, between five and ten minutes I think. I've abandoned potential new sites in less time.

Copyright: it says 2011 on your front page, 2010 elsewhere. Templates?

Bear with me on this next one. When I created a new account, I was left on a logged in page while waiting for the activation email. It was the /account page. I know I'm logged in because I see "My Events", and "Logout" at the top. When I clicked on the activation link in the activation email, I was brought to a new page/tab on the /account/login_new page, not logged in. I reloaded and hard-reloaded, still not shown as logged in on that page.

Just a nit, but since I'm shown as logged in on the one page, and you've given me a cookie, shouldn't I be logged in on any page/tab? I like that you left me logged in on the /account page (remember, I've just created the account and I'm waiting for the activation email on that page), it gives me something to do while waiting for the activation email. But then I should be logged in no matter what other tab/pages I'm on, particularly the one that the email activation link brings me to. But, just a nit I'm picking.

My Friends: I added Friend1, Friend2 and Friend3. Deleted Friend2 with the red X on the right, that's pretty clear. What are the check boxes for, to the left of the friends, and the select all check box above them? Did you leave this feature on without any purpose? Did you intend to be able to create an event from here, by first selecting friends, and forgot to finish this feature?

Same comment for Courses.

Create Event: When I first created an event, I scrolled down to the Who block, far enough that Itinerary was not visible. I clicked on Friend1 and Friend3 repeatedly, and "nothing" happened. I wasn't able to see that those friends had been added to the Itinerary until I scrolled back up. And then I thought for half a second "how did those get in there? Oh, right."

Make those buttons in the Who block toggles, and highlight them when a friend is on the itinerary, unhighlight when you click again and toggle that friend off. It may be redundant, but I like the feedback to take place where I did the action.

Similar comment for the date buttons in the When block.

You have "clear all" in the three sections of the Itinerary block. In keeping with the suggestion in the preceding two paragraphs, add a clear all in the Who, When and Options block.

The names of the sections in the Itinerary block (Course Options, Date Options, Invites) should match the names of the corresponding blocks (Options, When, Who). Change one side or the other.

I like the idea of the Itinerary block. Maybe you could move it to span the top, and have it always visible regarless of scroll position (like your font source at the bottom :). You could then move the Who and Options block up to the top of the right column.

The order of the sections in the Itinerary block should match the displayed order of their corresponding blocks. If you were to re-arrange as above, with Itinerary across the top and the other blocks in a two by two grid, AND you re-designed so that the four blocks re-flowed into a single column of four when you re-size the page smaller, then the order of the sections in the Itinerary would be the top to bottom displayed order of the single column of four blocks. Extra fancy if you had the Itinerary sections arranged two by two to match the blocks' two by two grid when the screen is large, and rearranged the Itinerary sections to a single column when the blocks are a single column on a smaller screen/window.

I tried to add a non-existent golf course to my profile, but could not do it, I was limited to only what's in your drop down list. Do you really have all the courses in the country here? I suspect not, but maybe there's such a list.

As for that, you mis-spelled the Wellshire course in Denver as Weilshire. http://www.cityofdenvergolf.com/wellshire/

Please don't take any of the above as negative, I think you've made a great site. Whatever I said that's subjective is exactly that, subjective; you're the boss.
