Sort of off topic question but does anyone know why the second "t" character in the last paragraph is rendering as a "†" (Dagger, U+2020)? Is this part of a digital watermark or something? "Matt Mireles, the founder and CEO of †he video t

#1 & #2 (faux scarcity) seem to be at odds with #9 (using Adwords and other paid acquisition channels). Are you paying for people to arrive at your site and then getting them to beg (or be well connected) to be able to use the service?

I can't recommend the Allen Carr strongly enough. It simply changed my mindset on smoking and quitting in such a fundamental way that I couldn't help feeling great about stubbing out my last smoke and actively looked forward to some withdr

Yes - someone mentioned this in our feature request forum. I can see how it would be quite useful, should by fairly easy to add too.

We can certainly consider it and I'm sure you're not the only person who would find it useful - what sort of data would you like to display on the dashboard? The problem with many API requests is that, unless you're a real user, it's hard t

Yes, that's annoying. I glossed over this in testing but I'll make sure it's seen to.

This is a big thing for us and something that will definitely be included. We're working on a design for that at the moment and I hope it won't be too long before we can include it.

Thanks for the compliments. I loved the Panic status board, just fantastic. If you have a Pingdom account you can display your server uptime from there right now. Otherwise, we will be implementing a "reverse API" for custom data and exte

It's a cloud service at the moment. I have no philosophical objection to it being self-hosted and it could be something we look to in the future but no plans yet. We're working on a design for a reverse API to allow users to plug in their

No reason other than an unacceptable bug. I'll make sure we fix this and please accept my apologies.

Thanks! I'll add both of those to the feature requests forum. We're actually using PT for Geckoboard development so it would be useful for me too!

No problem, I'm more than happy to share :) It is sort of an oxymoron but it I've managed to get it working for me. My day job is as an ETL developer specialising in building data warehouses (usually Oracle) for the purposes of MI. I run

Thanks for the feedback. We're purposefully shying away from trend lines and analysis at the moment and only showing high level summary information that's useful for right now. We don't want you to have to interpret, just to see what a cu

Pricing is still to be finalised. It will come from a conversation with our users. I want it to be reasonable and affordable.

Thanks. We're working on fleshing out a pricing model but it won't be implemented until the product has matured a little and we've added a few more APIs. Nothing is cast in stone but I like the idea of a freemium model which included a co

That's 2nd vote for Clicky. Yes, Jason from Buffalo designed it (I've credited him elsewhere in this thread). He totally got it and did an amazing job IMO.
