User reviews

I love the premise and everything but i wish it actually worked. I would easily give 5 stars to this its unique and very useful but you have to fix it first. Adding groups does absolutely nothing, i refresh the page and it's literally the same. Please fix so we can actually use it. Also, would be nice to add users in a group and when you expand the group you see their photo on the left and their name so it's nice and modern looking.
