I've thought about this, and haven't made up my mind yet. I want people to say what's on their mind and part of that means that the post can't be easily tied back to their identity. Facebook connect seems the antithesis of that, but I guess at some point people have to trust the site they're posting on.

Definitely see what you're saying. Two things: One is that it would lose the "I'm everyone" feel, as now there are identities of the authors. Second part would be that just because you would use Facebook Connect to authenticate wouldn't mean that you would have to use their personal info on their post - they could choose between using their own info and using an alias that gives no tie back to who they are. Would jus…

Oh yeah, I get that: FB just to prove you're a real person and tag you to something other than an IP and cookie. Still anonymous.

True: re how to focus that - I'm all ears.

I would suggest a way to see how many comments have been made on each photo. Fantastic blog, I'm enjoying all the content so far. Also when an image is clicked it would be great to see the full size. For example there is a long image file that has been shrunk down so all the text is unreadable.

Ack, will do in next revision.

Edit: done - comment count and full size images now running.

Tried posting a couple times, it didn't work.

If you didn't have an image or embed, or your post set of a filter, check the very top of the page. Errors in posts are at the top of the page, an idea I borrowed from Stack Overflow. In testing, though, people don't like this, so I'll move the error messages next revision.

I did have an image and only a few words unlikely to set off a filter. It could be a problem on my side, maybe the AJAX request timed out or something similar. I didn't see any errors at the top.

It could be a length limit - the site will post 'cat got you're tongue' on top of the page. A lot of people have commented it wasn't prominent enough so it wouldn't be your fault if you did miss it.

I've moved the errors to the form area now.

Retry if you'd like, and if it doesn't work I'd be support happy if you email me the post - I'll check it goes through next time.

I get a 500

Was restarting to handle the flood of traffic - retry.

A better 'sorry' page for these times is on my todo list. In fact I'd love some way for nginx to realize a proxy is down and redirect to a sorry page automatically.

Edit: I see, the comment itself was [dead]. Not sure what happened there. Dead comment deleted and replicated below.

I launched this late last night, a few things that make it unique: - You can actually have a conversation with someone - each person submitting gets a unique animal for the thread. All replies from the same animal are from the same person. - It's realtime, you can happily sit there and watch idly if you wish. - There's a ranking algoritm that's based on interaction rather than vites. There's still a few bugs to work…

Hmm, I'm noticing duplicates of the animals even when they are from different posters. (The savings thread for example)

I'm not seeing comment count on the live page, it's working on the top page however. Full size image by link is working now however.

Thanks for the heads up, I'll check this out and fix.
