					<description>Thanks for the good feedback Vivek, much appreciated.

Over the past 2 months, while in private beta, our focus was getting the site ready for public use, putting the spit and polish on it so people can have fun using the site.  From what people are saying, it looks like we have succeeded at this.

Now that we have launched out of private beta, StreetAdvisor shifts gear and becomes 100% focused on people contributing their expert opinions and reviews (when I say expert, no one knows a street better than the people who live there).  We plan on building up a large database of local relevant information so that in time, StreetAdvisor will become a great resource for people looking to move into an area.  

As you mentioned in your article, having NLS listings along with category based filtering will make StreetAdvisor a lot better.  We plan to do these kinds of things and more over the next couple of months, so stay tuned!

It%u2019s an immense task to get the information at the street level, but we feel definitely feel up to the challenge.   

Thanks again Vivek.
