Great work so far. Love the overall aesthetic. I have some concerns about usability for your consideration:
Overall discoverability of affordances is low
So far unable to locate the logout button, login button, messaging app, browser, power switch, settings/preferences/options, avatar editor, soft keyboard, or any pixels.
Somewhat confusing IA
Why isn't the nav on the left or top or at least behind a hamburger button? What are the underlying organizing principles of the information and product? Why don't double-tap, z-swipe, or tiger-grip actually do anything? They're pretty standard gestures by now.
Notifications
I know they're usually bolted on later, but strongly recommend folding in notifications from the get go. As it stands, none of my Twinstabook friends have any idea of all the fulfilling, socially responsible actions I've already performed with this novel system. We should notify the living hell out of them.
Thanks. And again, love it so far. Really top notch.
