I could definitely provide this, if you wanted to open an issue i'll get round to it soon enough...

People you follow are highlighted orange, as the only orange is your own stuff, the logo and these people it makes sure they stand out :-)

Strange, it's definitely valid according to the docs and Google also processes the manifest on upload - are you all on Linux?

It doesn't have html comments either ;-)

nice, glad you could tweak to your liking!

That's a shame... I can't say it happens for me, perhaps I've subconsciously learnt not to scroll in the vertical band where the usernames live! I'm using a hoverIntent plugin so you do need to hover for a few hundred milliseconds before it

I believe those are consumer focused services, where as EasyPost is designed for developers to integrate shipping and postage into their apps and websites.

Got to wonder if this is a bit of copy and paste from the old terms, although you would think they would have checked this quite thoroughly! Good spot.

Agreed, also a fitbit owner and this seems like a no-brainer - they should open up this data and allow for more to be built on the platform ala runkeeper.

Great idea guys, and well executed. I can totally see how this would increase the amount of followers you would get. Agreed with with @michaelhoffman though - it would be nice to have the option to permanently remove (there will always be t

I clicked through thinking this would be about balance, spacing, typography, information heirachy and colour. An understanding of these basics will give you a much better starting point than css3, background textures and webfonts. There's a

Great feedback, I don't know what your tour looked like and what the level of text was but I would hope that by keeping the individual points very simple and visually attractive they would stand a higher chance of being read?

We store a flag on the user that the tour has been seen. The user is always loaded with the page anyway so it's no extra DB calls to get this information.

Hey, using images allows compatibility back to IE6. You can read up on the original grumble post here which crumble depends on: http://jamescryer.github.com/grumble.js/

Hey, good feedback for sure - in all there is no button so as to keep the aesthetic simple - the entire bubble is always the button. The first step in the tour tells the user they can click to continue, I would definitely recommend that you

Crumble is a jquery plugin that makes it easy to create tours to introduce new users or new features. It is built on top of grumble.js by James Cryer to generate the bubbles themselves. The library also uses a standard ordered list to store

Personally, i'm glad to see they are using Webkit. As long as it doesn't mean crazy incompatibilities - the more browsers the better!

wow, congrats. I'm sure a lot of hard work and energy went into this over the years!

It's not half-assed so much as a first step. 10gen have previously stated that the plan is to gradually increase the granularity or write-locks over successive releases.
