Thanks for checking it out. It's still an alpha pre-release and there are some performance enhancements I'm working on.

The cool features are after you log in, you can save searches and it'll monitor real-time and notify of new posts.

Doesn't work for me (IE8 on Win 7). I know there is a general allergy towards IE but that's 65% of your market, so coding to include support for it is not exaclty a cardinal sin.

all i see is a black, unreadable page, with a search bar and a vaguely labeled "community" button whose behavior i could not predict at all, and which produced nothing local to my own community when i tried to use it.

I'll check it on IE after I get a new windows virtual machine running. I just gave the machine I've been testing on away.

However, as far as your IE usage statistics, 65% is being more than generous even for 2006. Currently it's more like 31%.
