I whipped this up last week and I'm not sure where to take it from here. The idea is to provide an attractive way of sharing plain text, such as articles, prose, poetry etc.

At the moment it just shows random writings from authors older than 2 days on the homepage, and I don't think the UI is quite there yet. I'd be really interested in any feedback or suggestions.

so, I need to have twitter to share text? I think I'll stick with pastie or something similar

I'm not trying to emulate pastie in allowing anonymous posting, so I opted for the quickest authentication system I could. I'll expand it to support other services or a standard signup form, but I'm not planning on opening it up to anonymous posting; I see it more like Instagram, for example.
