Ask HN: Review my startup joinbox.com (closed beta invites)

I'd love some feedback; we're a startup from Switzerland trying to help stay connected with a sleek unified inbox (social networks, email, rss)

Why do you want my email password? I'm using gmail, so I assume you could use OAuth for that? Also the request permissions dialog for FB is just plain scary, do you really need all those permissions? I like the sleek interface!

edit: if I view a tweet with replies, I would like to click the tweets bellow that to see replies to that tweet (just like on twitter.com)

edit2: add google reader integration for news feeds

edit3: how about visually separating content from different sources? For instance I put more importance to stuff from FB and if posts from FB would have a blue background (just an example) I could find them more easily in the swarm of twitter posts ...

Plop down some coin and buy an SSL certificate. Really not comfortable putting in my email password/other information on an unknown site.

It's really hard to tell what the product actually does from just that one screenshot. I tried to sign up but it said my username was taken (even though I've definitely never signed up before). Looks like an interesting product if I could see what it does specifically.

Hmm, there are still some available. Try again. On the other hand, there's a clip on joinbox.com

Well, you can, see the link with token above.

It seems it needs my email password? Not sure I wanna give that out to just anyone.

Also, FYI, your site made my Google Chrome crash (XP)

Good idea. I like your video. Unfortuantely it seems that you are out of tokens - so I can't get you more feedback than that.

I was just looking for something like this. It's really nice so far.

Seems like token not available any more
