My biggest problem with the new site is how hard it is to customize the short link. I did it once after spending like 5 minutes trying to figure it out and to be honest I don't even remember how I did it so next time I'm sure it'll be almo

Yeah I've been playing for the last 20 minutes and would much prefer a normal site based login/password system. No offense but I don't like linking facebook/twitter/etc in where sites have the ability to post to my feeds/read my data/etc ;

The ads are tailored to you, or whomever uses the same computer the you're are using. Google thinks you need those pills. The kids will get different ads based on what google detects as their interests.

Didn't register because I know what the answer will be. 6 days before I joined each of the services :) Now a good feature would be to lock us out of our account for that many days :) Need a vacation...

Aw sad day. I had one of the original Chumby's right after they went on sale. Haven't used it in year since the wifi became so flakey but it was nice at the time.

Cool thanks! One suggestion though. The video on your home page. Allow full screen :) The full screen button didn't do anything and had to navigate to vimeo to watch it full screen. It convinced me to give the site a shot though.
