You could put a link to that site that muflax linked, or some similar site, in your LessWrong profile. People who have feedback for you are more likely to see your profile than this thread, I think.
Great idea. I think this would be a really neat LW norm, and it has a delightfully low barrier of inconvenience. It would be nice if most users put such a link in their profile, but I doubt many users would get much/any feedback.
I posted my link to my facebook page and I got 5 responses from my friends within the day, 3 of them serious.
I have a hard time coming up with feedback even for people I've known online for ages. It's easier once I've met them in person. Maybe we could regularly give feedback after meetups?
I like this idea. What's the best way to associate someone's whatswrongwith.me link with the right person? Business cards?
Hello! My name is Feedback. You can use me to send anonymous feedback to other LWers via private messages.
Login: Feedback
Pass: CrockersRules
If you are using me to send feedback to someone who has not explicitly requested it and/or has not declared Crocker's Rules, please take that fact into consideration.
LWers who asked for personal feedback/critique in the comments to What I think about you: Dorikka, atucker, muflax, jsalvatier, Tyrell_McAllister, TheOtherDave.
Here's a Google Doc form where anyone can leave anonymous feedback for me.
Allowing less wrong users to send each other anonymous messages would be great site feature. There could be a checkbox in your preferences to determine whether you operated under Crocker's rules or not, maybe with room for an explanatory note on how you like your criticism. (This would also solve the problem of asking people if they operate under Crocker's rules in real life as a prelude to criticizing them – it's kind of awkward because if they don't operate under Crocker's rules, just asking is tantamount to criticism, which they might not be comfortable with. if this feature were implemented, you could just check their less wrong profile instead of asking.)
By the way, I operate under Crocker's rules! (hint, hint) the e-mail address described in my profile website is ideal.
And when I remember, I heartily thank anyone who criticizes me. (Maybe someday if I'm wealthier there will be monetary rewards ;)
Not that I think I say enough to warrant feedback, but I'd rather know than not know.
Hit me up with that feedback. (Crocker's Rules, et al.)

LWers who asked for personal feedback at lukeprog's Tell me what you think about me: lukeprog, Jolly, SilasBarta, gwern.
If you have met any of these LWers face-to-face, or just have some constructive criticism to offer them, I urge you to do so by any discreet channel, e.g. private messages on LW or the various feedback forms that these LWers have set up. Most of them have declared Crocker's rules. Please don't hesitate: you have a chance to do a lot of good.
There seems to be a large unmet demand for feedback. Any ideas how to better satisfy that demand are welcome!
