Chrome not happy :(

Refused to execute script from 'https://github.com/chjj/marked/raw/master/lib/marked.js because its MIME type ('text/plain') is not executable, and strict MIME type checking is enabled.

FF not happy either

ReferenceError: marked is not defined

If i understood correctly, the application provides real time information about places depending on the other users comments. Video starts good, but we can't see much about application. Some small boxes with unclear photos show up in the phone screen when phone is held towards some direction.

Not clear whether it shows the "friends hanging out currently at the place phone directed to" or "comments about the place". Somewhere in the video a box appeared on a car's driver that was passing by, which made me even think that "is that a face recognition app?" (yes i hope and expect too much)

Show more from the application.

It seems fine. Sadly i don't have much sense on visual design, so as long as the recommendations exist somewhere on page, it's fine for me :)

good job. adding recommendations would provide continuity. rating preview is a good feature; i've always wondered why youtube does not provide it by default.

I fail to see what exactly is different from the other emails filling up my junk mail folder? They are also few lines long, sent from a person unknown to me, refer to my site(s) and contain links to external sites that have suggestions for optimizations. Many of them refer to me with my name, either taken from whois info or from the site.

Way simple, yet charming. Loved the show-categories-on-hover feature, but it's impossible to see the categories when scrolled down.

It is obvious that for some reason the officers in the patent office are not able to find out that the "technology" to be patented is really an ages old technique or device defined in a horribly bloated language to either hide what it really is or include anything and everything that may have any small piece in common with that art or device.

And i guess it's always seen or shown as the patent office is responsible for the problem, not the individual officers who really are the ones that mess up.

Isn't it possible to hold the individual officers or at least the patent office responsible for the damages caused from granting patents to these kind of bogus claims?

Thank you. System allows multiple aliases per email, you can separate your aliases and services as you want. Such as using [email protected] for ..uh.. receiving from mostly spamming services, and [email protected] for, well...

It will also ease the filtering and grouping in MUAs as a side effect.

fixed the example.

edit: typos

MailMist.com is a receive-only email service, which in fact is an email alias provider. To start using the service, just toss an email to [email protected] with the subject line

  Subject: alias alias_name_you_want
  
and that's all. Well, of course some verification process will be run, but no big deal.

MailMist is a similar approach to privacy problem as the throw away email services, or registering a valid email service provider for a throw away account with a few advantages:

- Your mailbox(alias name) is yours, you don't share it with anybody

- You can use it anytime with any service, for it's not a throw away mail, it will not be rejected by the services you use

- You can create your mailbox name in seconds, without struggling with forms and captchas. You don't have to setpasswords, or secret questions either.

- We don't allow any mail directly pass through. Spammers are filtered out using simple solutions such as SPF. You'll be receiving only(mostly) the mails you're supposed to receive.

- You can get rid of your aliases any time you want. Any email hitting those aliases will be dropped, without bothering you.

MailMist is way beta for now and any suggestions will be very welcomed.

Thanks
