Very nice v0.1

Just thought I'd let you know that if you ever need an official Tee (weekly best idea?), there's a good one on threadless: http://www.threadless.com/product/2537/Captain_Obvious

The background image is causing scrolling lag in Chrome. I turned the background image off and it fixed the problem.

Is it mainly meant as a way of getting feedback on ideas, or throwing ideas out there for others to implement/use?

I found scrolling up and down the page to be very laggy--without much investigation, it appears to be caused by the background image.

Could you let me know what browser you're using and what your machine specs are? You're not the first to report the issue, so I'm trying to see where I should begin testing.

Same problem here. Firefox 3.6ish / Mac

This is really a lot of fun, and could even be a great tool for teams that are brainstorming ideas. I also love all of the feedback you are getting here and your receptiveness to it. I look forward to seeing how it grows. Nice work!

Great site, but I would lose the Courier. Might just be my preference.
