Have You Heard of Product Hunt?
Today I received an invitation to check out a site I'd not heard of, Product Hunt.
One of my favorite image resources, Pixabay, has been recently featured. Have you heard of this site to check out products you use every day? Do you like to hunt down new products? If you are a geek for new stuff, figuring it all out for a new online business, or are enthusiastic to check out the latest, then this sounds like an interesting site.
What You Will Find
It sounds like it would be a great resource. Especially if you review web apps, mobile apps, hardware, or other new tech stuff. Or for your own information and site use. You will find four categories of products. One is the tech products above. You will also find games (with apps), books, and podcasts to listen to.
History
It was founded three years ago, backed by funding for early stage startups about nine months later, and receive $7.1 million from a private American venture capital firm. Sound legitimate, experienced, and safe.
Member Use
You can sign in using Twitter or Facebook. It sounds like it is a free site. And they promise not to send you unwanted posts without your permission...
Check out reviews and even vote for products. All members can submit a product for review, but commenting is reserved for those approved by existing members.
Mobile and PC Access
Yes, apps are available. You will find a Google Chrome extension, an iOS app, and there is an Android app planned.
Since I'm kind of naive, and lack experience with sites like these, what is your take on it? Is this a site worth checking out?
Thanks for commenting ;)

Yes, I've heard of Product Hunt and I do visit the site every now and again to see what new products are out that I could possible use either for my business or just personal use.
I think it's a really good site and just genuine people trying to get their product out there.
Definitely worth checking out for those who haven't already.
