I just took the really short tour. Looks like a neat tool, as a web-based schematic capture package. I've never run across one of those before. I mostly use Altium in my work, but have considered Eagle and gEDA for this. I don't know how you'd collaborate on schematics though, seems like only one person can work on a schematic at a time.
I don't see any support for hierarchy in a design. For scaling things you need that. You advertise pages that are as large as you want, but that's more a hindrance than a help, I think, because you can't print an infinite-sized page. And how do you print? How do you get the data out at all - is that possible? In order to do layout you'll need to be able to produce a netlist, and the community-provided parts library is not so great if it doesn't carry over into the physical world of PCB layout. It would also be good to be able to do a simulation, but that is going to really be tough on your servers.
It would be really cool if you didn't have to sign up to try it, that stopped me in my tracks even if it did look like an easy form to fill out.
