It uses Mozilla Persona -- were you able to sign in using your Persona/BrowserID account? (https://login.persona.org/ https://login.persona.org/) If you don't already have a Persona account, you should be able to create one using the login dialog itself. If you're still having trouble, let me know. It fetches all images and inserts them accordingly, so images should be handled appropriately. I haven't figured out a good way to handle video embeds, but I'm looking for a good way to fetch standardized thumbnails in place of videos.

Ah, just close the window, wait 10 minutes, and come back. I tried to add my "blog" to it: Internal Server Error The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request. Please contact the server administrator, root@localhost and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error. More information about this error may be available in the server error log. Apache/2.2.22 (Amazon) Server at www.ebookglue.com Port 80 I'll look into it in another few days and try it again. There's some bugs here, but it seems like it worth checking out.

  Thanks! I'll take a look. Try adding http:// http:// to the url. I'll fix that in a little bit and make sure it fails more gracefully :-)

    Oops! The URL you entered doesn't look like a valid RSS or Atom feed. Seriously, I'll look at it in a few days. Do I have to create a RSS for the blog. I haven't done that yet, but I am planning to do so soon, so after I have that, I'll attempt it again.

      Ah yes. I probably should change the marketing language to reflect that an RSS or Atom feed is required. Sorry about the confusion :-) EDIT: This is a "coming soon" feature, but I've spoken with the folks at Readability and I'm going to be implementing their content parsing for sites without RSS or Atom feeds. There isn't a definite timeline on this, but just want to send some love to the Readability guys for being awesome in general.

With videos, how about putting the video URL through a shortener (maybe only if it's really long) and displaying it in plain text? You usually cannot sum up a video with an image anyway, and often enough the thumbnails are kinda useless to begin with. So I would consider a thumbnail a "nice to have" for sure, but title and link much more important. Maybe date and duration as well.

  That's a good idea! I'll look into implementing it. Thanks for the feedback.
