Very cool website, I can't stop reading advice for all ages. Just shared the link with all of my friends, hope they sign up as well.

Pros:

Soothing website design

Anonymous

Easy to tell how many advice is per age, so no need to click into each age

Cons:

How will you attract an 80 year old to contribute? Can I create an account for my grandpa?

Hey Valeria! Thanks for the feedback. Yeah the 80 year old is tough. I set the upper age limit to 81 with the anticipation that I won't get too many users around that age, but anyone up to 100 years old can register. If you've got advice from your grandparents you want to share, by all means make an account and do so, or feel free to message me the individual advice and I can add it on the backend. Thanks again 🙂

This isn't true. Cons - This is an unfiltered forum for users to say whatever they want. No, you can't single a person out, but forums can lead to a lot of vitriol being spewed. This IS a great idea and has huge potential for positive use. But very few things are "Cons: None". This kind of thinking is what's lead people around the world to turn on SF and the tech industry

If people start regularly contributing, this could be a hugely valuable source of information. I'm surprised more effort isn't put into gathering wisdom from older generations.

@john_c_palmer Definitely! A few days ago when I was asking friends to populate it, I asked my parents to post some things. It was really interesting seeing advice that they were giving me at my age.

This is a great idea. It's simple, but impactful. I loved going through the different age groups and seeing how advice changes. It was sobering and uplifting at the same time. Keep up the good work

@mrfrowntown Thanks again! 🙂 I'm interested to see what kind of tone the conversation takes on as more people contribute. I didn't want to design it to be sobering, or uplifting, but for it to take on whatever tone people want it to, kind of like an art project.

This is so much in line with what I've been trying to explain to people for the pasy 3 years (at least): knowledge is best when it's backed by experience. Thanks a lot for this!

Wow - this is awesome. I don't think it's too often that we find something so touching posted here. It's not cheezy at all - I had a great experience reading through the advice.

Really liked this! Absolutely love the fact its actually useful points and respectful and not belittling. My only pointer would be ensuring there aren't duplicates and you may need some sort of filter or something after there becomes quite a few pages as I think the best part about my age one was only having 2 pages.
