There is no need to force me to create an account to use this service. Have a list of supported news sites and let me pick the ones I want to see, then save a bookmark to the page.<p>Requiring an account is a back button.
I'm sure I'm not the target.
The window is - empty? [1]<p>Ghostery informed me that it had to block Facebook Connect, but this surely isn't the intended landing page, even if I _do_ hate Facebook crap? I mean - I could at least use the links above and see the about page, but for a landing page this is kind of baad.<p>1: <a href="https://dl.dropbox.com/u/1194203/Pulse.png" rel="nofollow">https://dl.dropbox.com/u/1194203/Pulse.png</a>
Definetly looks interesting! However the corperate network I am on at the moment does not display the page correctly (could be anything from outdated html5 or just regular blocking).<p>Either way, I really enjoy the iPhone/Android app!<p>I agree though, I don't like the IE logo on the top right of the page. Call my crazy, but I am really fond of the simple, clean, eligant display on the iPhone/Android. Plus I just don't like IE.<p>As far as requiring an account - While I do see the merit in requiring registration, I think it should just load up the interface, and require registration if they would like to save their list of sources for when they visit the website later. Not to mention, noting that the sources and everything sync's across platforms is definetly a plus.<p>Good luck to you!
Requiring facebook connect is a deal breaker. My corporate intranet blocks all facebook request (and I do as well with Ghostly). Please place the facebook connect JavaScript at the bottom of the page.
'Welcome message' is being popped up for every page I visit even for the pages that I'd already visited. A bug? Using chrome 21.0.1180.60 m on Windows 7<p>Edit: Issue resolved after reloading the page
