Very well written. Especially the kosher traveler part.  Anyone can just start writing up a kosher traveler book and find ideas for every location from ddf. It would be an amazing opportunity for the right individual

Yup, but I think using the Dansdeals brand would help this thing take off as well...

i don't know if it's been mentioned or if this even makes sense.
seems like people don't know too much about the forums site. i was thinking of a way to drive traffic to this site leveraging ddms. you could have a post like once a week or once a month or something titled- things you may have missed that were on the forums. for example the brookstone coupon thing from today or any other glitch or price mistake that goes dead in no time. in there you would also be able to feature previews of great TRs like the Icelandic one or the upcoming Cuba one. basically anything from Something Fishy :)
My greatest achievement? I am fluent in FRIENDS quotes

I could just imagine all the hate when posting a bunch of great stuff that they missed.

Good News: The redesign is happening. Do you guys think a closed beta group is worth it? (Preview the new design, provide feedback, debug etc)

Yes, and id like to be a part of the closed group. It's a good idea to have a closed group to discuss more advanced topics...

Unless someone drops out there is no openings at this time. Do you have any references?
"LESS IS MORE" It is the cumulative effect that kills deals!!! How many times do I have to say this?  >:(
