That blur is clever. Kudous. One suggestion I have is to have another email submission field since I just got rid of the last one. I don't want to have to go looking for it. It actually took me a moment to remember where it was, since those pop ups are never something I pay attention to.

Did you find my easter egg?! You can always refresh the page. I actually removed the second CTA yesterday to help focus user attention. You probably already know this, but most people don't do what you did ;)

  CSS-Mastery FTW. I did refresh the page, which was how I found the the input field again. Yep. Given the comments here on HN, it is fairly evident not many do.

  I found the easter egg! Hilarious way to handle the quora-like "subscribe for more", and actually got me to subscribe. I won't spoil it for others.

    I've been trying really hard to put myself in the shoes of the user. This is exactly what I would have done, so there you have it.

      Ha, I considered it, but didn't bother until I read this comment thread. Then I knew exactly what I had to do. Enjoyed.

  That was clever and I had a good chuckle at it, too. I originally saved the page as a resource but a once-a-week email with this kind of material is definitely worth the time. This comment will shed light on: * Committed to Personal Growth

  I subscribed right away. But maybe we should still be friends?

    You know where to find me!

  I would suggest something a little different actually: I found the easter egg because it seemed silly to put in my email address just to get 3 questions. Suggestion: Put more blurred out, or a counter ("I'll send you X questions"), or something else that implies there is a bigger reward for the trade. P.s. Really dig the thought and tone behind this.

  Awesome ;) I subscribed because of it :D
