Make strong references to Swoopo.com
Creative Logo and Name Proposals will be required
I definitely don’t have any set idea or plan, and I am very flexible, but these are some of the ideas that i would like the website to have
It needs to be “overly” user-friendly not only for the consumers, but for me as well, to make changes and edit and input values in different areas
It also needs to be Mac-Friendly, as my primary operating system is Mac OS X
