Some advice to the devs:

You should do a multibit type client for NEM instead of a localhost site like in NXT.
I think that would be better for newbies and it feels professionally, what NXT's localhost page I think not the best...
But thats just an opinion, many people outside the crypto world don't even know what is IP or localhost or port, and if the software don't start it automatically they won't do it.

I agree. If NEM, the New Economy Movement, is going to introduce the concept of cryptocurrency to masses (people know little about Bitcoin), a user-friendly GUI is very important.

Should NEM succeed in this aspect, it can be huge.

All other cryptocurrency are competing in the same area -- people technically-minded enough to appreciate the concept of Bitcoin, or people greed enough who see profit from the price history of Bitcoin and all other altcoins -- this is a bloody red sea. While NEM can expand in the fresh blue sea.

And an easy-to-install and easy-to-use is vital to common people, a Nxt-style client just won't do. The majority will not trouble themselves installing JAVA, setting up environment variable etc.

If NEM runs on JAVA, provide a way to automatically install EVERYTHING, JAVA, NEM client, then produce an easy way to start NEM. For example, a NEM_start.html points to 127.0.0.1:7875.
