I'm guessing New Relic's website was not built using your tool. Posting a screenshot of their website on your marketing site implies that your tool was used to build it. A bit misleading in my opinion.

I switched to Illustrator and found I liked it better. But, I added an Omnigraffle version altho it's not perfect.

I'll debug it and preview again in Firefox. I built it fast and didn't properly test it before moving on to other work. When I do "real" work I do test in Firefox on all platforms.

How does this work? I assume all encrypted emails require both parties use the software, right? So, all my friends, associates, coworkers have to have GPGMail to read my encrypted emails?

Am I missing something? What is in this CMS that is worth $1,500/month? Or is it just they can charge that because of who they are and who they're targeting (enterprise)?

I tested out the app and found it more complicated and not much more powerful than existing free or cheap CMSes.

Is it legal to manipulate web traffic like this? I would assume some companies who depend on ads (eg, NYTimes.com) would object, perhaps with a lawsuit, to ISPs or other imitation ISPs (ie, Hotels) to removing original NYTimes ads and replacing it with their own.

Love the design. Clean, interesting and informing. One thing I would suggest is add a screenshot of the product somewhere. I find that seeing the product helps really draw me in and want to sign up.

Interesting from an IO point of view. It would be nice to have a clearer tie-in with CPU and other benchmarks for these providers. Does anyone have any experience with Storm on Demand to share? Their prices for SSD-based servers look enticing.

I hope so. They said they will be "reviewing our policies and procedures to prevent this from ever recurring."

That doesn't imply they will be posting a public update. As a Linode customer, I would like to know details of how this breach occurred and what actions will be taken to prevent it in the future.

Are these numbers based on most previous versions of PHP? I'm on 5.3.10, do you think if I upgraded I would see similar improvements?

Your site's design is pretty awesome. I think the playful copywriting works really well.

I also really like the idea. Did Marie-Eve Belanger also design your site/app? If not, who was responsible for that -- from the demo video and your public website it rocks.

Two typos I found: 1) typo in your blog post for the link to the PDF storyboard 2) typo in your about page (Katherine's bio) " as an independent a digital media consultant" (remove the "a")
