It is pretty clear why this site is useful for CR-users: those who ask for code review may get some points regarding their code, reviewers can see ideas of other reviewers which also stimulates writing better code. But is this site useful for non-CR users? And do you see any scenario how external users will be able to find this site if they were looking for some solution? Or maybe it just doesn't matter at all?

I'm going with the latter option here -- I am not sure it matters. I suspect the publicity from Stack Overflow, which has a native audience of programmers, will drive enough traffic here to get reasonable code reviews.

This site, like Code GolfCode Golf, is a bit of an odd duck and a trial balloon.

As with all Area 51 sites, this site is an experiment.. and that is OK.. if it doesn't do well in public beta, we'll make the data dump available and shut it down.

I am cautiously optimistic at the moment though.
