It's a spare time project that I built for myself so it may contain bugs.
It uses Facebook login because I didn't want to code a complete login system just for a weekend project.
Let me know what do you think about it!

Just an FYI: When you're using the Facebook API to get profile photos, specifying ?type=large gives you a photo with variable width and height.
What you're then doing with CSS to display it (giving it a fixed width and height of 128px with a 64px border-radius) is distorting the picture.
First thought on the homepage is that I really don't like signing in with Facebook without knowing what's on the other side (a couple of screenshots would help me). I doubt that'll put many real-world users off though, good luck!
It only uses Facebook basic data as you can saw in the Facebook login window permissions.
I know it hasn't so many real world uses but I needed it for myself, you can read more at http://thank.st/about
Thanks!
Good luck!
1. It looks like a nice professional design so it does not give off initial bad vibes
2. The first thing that appears after login is a pop up asking me to get other people to join. I thought this was how to thank people at first. I think this is an unecessary pop up - this is a viral idea anyway, you dont need people to pre-join - the "thank" message will do that for you, so drop that first pop up - very confusing
3. I had to hunt around till I found how to thank people. I would put a different UX up front - in fact that pop up was fine - it had about 30 of my friends, just let me click one.
4. the search box is fine but I am moslty going to thank friends first surely.
5. add it to linkedin - will be a great networking add on
6. I want to send a message with the thank, and preview it. I still dontknow what I just sent. THat would worry me
Overall, yeah nice but its not a good home for Facebook. Put it on linkedin, and I see it, on facebook, no. But that might just be me
goodluck
2. Although you can simply skip that step I'll keep that in mind!
3. Great idea!
4. The search box puts your friends in the top results so you see the people you know first!
5. Cool, I hadn't thought about it but it'd be useful
6. I've thought that before and I'll implement it for sure
Again, thank you very much for the feedback!
