Thanks! I'll get on the keyboard shortcuts and title text now. I'm not sure why it would be slow since nginx is caching all of the demo pages.

About the inbox thing: I wasn't sure what the best phrasing for that would be, but the idea is that you can use the X and the Q buttons to process all of the items quickly so that your "inbox" (the items you haven't seen) stays at zero, even if your Queue (what you haven't read) has things in it.

Maybe it's time to have a naming comp, inbox zero isn't the greatest.

Love the site, though, going to have more of a look around.

Oh, I think the slowness is client-side, I'd expect it to be fast enough with a modern javascript engine.

Out of curiosity, why are you using FF 3.x? I don't currently test anything that old, but you're the second person I've run into in the last few weeks who is still using it (the other person was using an Add On which hasn't been updated)

It's the default browser in Ubuntu 10.04 (the current LTS version). When the next LTS version comes out in April I'll upgrade to that then.

It's also shipped in Debian Stable which is what I'm using for my (almost entirely dedicated to server-side programming) office workstation.
