Wonderful article!
Could you tell us a little more about domshot.
I just the other day looked at phantomjs and ended up using casperjs on top as it allowed to use standard selectors to pick the elements I wanted to capture.

Very nice effect. Very very smooth on Firefox Aurora with plenty of ram.
Is it possible to make this CSS effect work on the iphone? Is it a matter of tweaking the CSS or is it due to the limitation of the iOS Browser? Im curious of how smooth it looks on the iPhone. Would happily have checked a different mobile... but I dont have one of those.

This is not the right place for it. I have now understood Meteor has funding of $11million dollars.
What exactly are they funding in? Please explain, im a developer who clearly fails to understand business.
Edit: Please feel free to email if you would rather keep this thread clean from this detour.

What you have described, is not quite what I had in mind when I said it was a new way to recruit.
GCHQ ( UK ) released http://www.canyoucrackit.co.uk/ to try and gather interest aiming specifically at a target market.
"It said that the Cabinet Office supported "initiatives such as the Cyber Security Challenge, which promotes careers in cyber security via annual competitions and events"." http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-15968878
If the parties involved did a little research on some people on reddit, they may have found someone who would be curious and self motivated into publishing it on reddit.
When the GCHQ challenge was launched there was huge publicity on reddit, strengthening the above statement that there would be interest.
I for one am quite looking forward to hearing how this unravels as the person who triggered it (assume for now), reached out, is at least keen to continue the publicity.

I feel its to convoluted to be a marketing scheme, as you would surely have a product which links to decryption.
I think it might be more fitting if this was a new approach to recruit people for the NSA / Cryptography office for X company or organisation.

A few weeks ago, my facebook account appeared in the list of "linked to your facebook".
I deleted that connection, yet still my email address has changed to this new facebook account.
Unhappy.
