Buttons are not working for me. My browser is Google Chrome Version 37.0.2062.20 dev-m

Also not working for me in Chrome.

I see 3 errors in the Javascript console: GET http://www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js net::ERR_BLOCKED_BY_CLIENT (index):507 GET http://cdn.mxpnl.com/libs/mixpanel-2.2.min.js net::ERR_BLOCKED_BY_CLIENT (index):546 GET http://static.olark.com/jsclient/loader0.js 403 (Forbidden) (index):1

It seems like something in your browser may block these calls. Usually these errors can be seen with adBlock. Do you have it?

I found the same behavior, but was able to enjoy the demo by browsing directly to this link - http://www.montagebook.com/editor?open-demo=1

Do have a Javascript or a cookie blocker installed? You need to (at least temporarily) allow Javascript from montagebook.com and google-analytics.com plus session cookies from montagebook.com.

I have the same issues. I do have Disconnect running, which blocks about 30-40 third-party requests made from your site. It looks like errors from mixpanel are breaking the rest of your app.

I do allow same-party interaction and cookies. (i.e., anything from montagebook will work.)

You may want to set your third-party analytics services to be asynchronous, so they aren't a single point of failure for your entire application.

Agreed--we're looking into how we can have the site degrade a bit more gracefully for visitors that disable 3rd party services that aren't critical to the main experience.
