Site first (it's what I we see initially) :-<p>None of your nav works in FF4. It's throwing no js errors, but also not responding to a click on any nav element.<p>It might be a Chrome extension, but you still need the site to work for everyone, especially as you suggest downloading Chrome in your instructions, which makes me think you're targeting users of other browsers too.<p>The long scroll screen is very pretty, and the styling is great, but you have to go a very long way to find out what the heck it is. Even then I don't know if it's just sharing stuff on facebook or sending people emails. The fact that it's a browser extension and how it helps you share pages should be visible without any scrolling.<p>There's too much duplicate nav, either lose the next/previous arrows, or the little icons (I'd say lose the next previous).<p>The extension:-<p>If this is an extension that shares to facebook, well personally I can't see myself adding browser bloat for a feature that is built into most pages themselves nowadays, and often targeted to specific content rather than a whole page.<p>And if it just sends emails to people, well this might just be me, but I just drag the favicon onto mail, and then just start typing peoples names into the to: and lo and behold auto-complete kicks in.<p>"Typing out whole email addresses is so 2005" more like so 2000 or before. No-one has typed a whole email address into a mail client in a very long time :)

Really nice site but honestly, I find the product pretty boring. You mind sharing why you decided to go with node and sockets.io?

is it working? Seems non-responsive in FF4.<p>I get the envelope but none of the interactions work.

"If we know anything about the internet, it's that's it full of fun"<p>Go through each of your descriptions and read them out loud. You'll immediately discover many grammatical and typographical errors.<p>I got to the bottom and still didn't know what "Postman" is. Try to elaborate on that by making the problem/solution extremely clear.<p>Put the call to action at the very end, not the middle of the process.

Beautifully designed, but don't see the point.<p>1. Your friends have to install it too or else it spams their FB wall. 2. If your friend does have it, it appears to only send a desktop notification. At that point, why not just IM it to them, so if they have anything to say about it, they have you in a window, ready to go?

Does not work at all in FF4. Test before launch.
