My german keyboard didn't work :(
Maybe for editing a textarea with rich formatting.
But ShareJS supports much more than that. You can sync custom objects etc. Look at their examples!
They had a similar "approach" :)
Still, very nicely done!
Regarding your questions: We take the pain away of managing all these different channels. All the incoming messages are stored in suplify and you and your colleagues can reply right there. And you can see what your colleagues wrote.
Besides that: Beautiful :)
The font makes it really hard to read. I actually have to concentrate to find out what is written in the heading.
And honestly, I wanted to stop reading after the first paragraph:
An ad hoc (ok?) perpetually (uhm...) published online journal of publication-worthy (oh dear...) essays written by a global community of (egotistical) (omg...) undergraduate International Relations students (wtf..) to act as a platform for the dissemination of and discourse on (what?!) ...
I mean, the writing is good. But not for web pages. And especially not for the first paragraph. There are so many foreign words in this, that it seems like you just tried to link as many words together as you can.
Simplify this first paragraph! Make it less "complex".
Also the paper listings all look the same. The image caught my attention at first, but then I realized that every paper has that image. Why is it so big, then, if I can't use it do distinguish the papers?
There is also nowhere mentioned what benefits I get when registering.
The site does look pretty simple, but I think this is too simple. There should be at least some structuring elements and something to make the papers more appealing.
Besides that it is an interesting idea though. After reading the topics they quite caught my attention :)
Not sure how much they cost, though.
But I have to agree - you should definately put up a section "What makes us different". When I was browsing around on your webpage all I thought was "What makes this different to Basecamp??"
So you don't necessarily make a comparison page, but highlight what you do better with your product than other project management software.
As far as I can tell it is a nice way of trying to find employees by matching them. I have not tried your system yet, but if it works like that it does sound interesting.
However there is a lot of competition in that space, so unless you have a real driving force behind marketing or really good reasons for companies to use your service it will be pretty tough.
Also do you support "Web presences" like stackoverflow? I can imagine that developers want to use that as resumes, too.
Thanks for your feedback! Glad you like the website :)
I will experiment with moving the screenshots away from the sidebar and make it a normal row in the content. This should make it more easy to see + read the features.
We will think of what we can do to the CTA. I guess its that we have a lot of green in other parts on the homepage, and the green background does not make it stand out.
Thanks again for your feedback!
Very funny lyrics and some nicely put background information on the characters!
Anyways, towards your iTunes instant: Why not offer the possibility to preview songs from your web app? You get the preview URL via the API!
