Offer HN: Have 10 people confirm your site works as intended
Hi HN -
tl;dr: email me (in profile) or comment to get free confirmation about whether one main interaction or page from your site (e.g. a landing page or a new feature) of your choosing works in different browsers or a bug report for where things break.

I've gotten a lot out of the HN community and want to give back.
One of my biggest development pains is still cross-browser compatibility. BrowserLab/BrowserShots is not enough because they just offer screenshots, and don't tell me if an interaction is broken (i.e. a certain plugin doesn't fire, clicking a link doesn't behave as intended, etc.). Parallels/Fusion, among other things, doesn't help me account for different screen sizes. And Selenium-based solutions are more complicated than they should be.
So I'll get 10 people to review one main page on your site (e.g. a landing page; a new feature you're pushing, etc.) and either tell you everything is fine or point out errors along with a screenshot. This is for free and for the first 20 HN'ers to either email or comment below asking for this. I ask for one week from when I confirm with you - but plan to get it much sooner.
Looking forward to hopefully saving you all some pain, or at least providing peace of mind that everything is fine on your most important pages and features.
