Would be very useful if we could paste a github file url and refactor.io could just render the file (or a portion of it based on the github url) rather than pasting code manually.

Also, I was trying to comment on a code snippet I created. It would have been convenient to be able to refer to a specific line using shorthand (like #14, etc.) in a comment rather than pasting the entire snippet again with a diffed view.

Still a cool and super simple idea.

thanks Afaq! this is great feedback!

Maybe take a look at http://codereview.stackexchange.com/ for features relating to the social aspects of code review. Making code review a more pleasant if not enjoyable process for the reviewer and reviewee seems like the hard part of the process.

Good luck.

thanks Ben! yes we're working to make the code review experience as snappy and enjoyable as possible!
