I’ve deleted my WidSets account

I just had to … otherwise I would’ve punched a hole in my LCD. It isn’t mature, it has too much bling and not enough substance, and frankly it doesn’t do it’s job all too well. I had someone from the WidSets team email me offering help. The instructions were simple enough but implementing them almost caused me an aneurysm, followed by a stroke, and lastly hypertension.
Now I don’t mean to insult the developers, what they’re trying to do is difficult, and I admire their work, but I’m sorry guys it just isn’t working for me. You need to hire a user experience expert, or at least consult a 14 year old and see if they can figure it out. That’s the benchmark in todays Web 2.0 world. If young people, kids as well, use your product, and enjoy using it, then it will be a smashing hit. Now I’ll offer more constructive criticism later but right now I simply need to walk my dog for 15 minutes and calm down after becoming so upset with that website.
