Great idea and execution but why only 30 days?
Long story, but it is a campaign under another group for 30 days and after that it should be around for a long time.
Never got around to thanking that teacher?

#12Most schools have websites with faculty emails listed... it's very easy to look them up. I like the idea for this site - but would love to see a bigger mechanism for actually getting the messages to the teachers.
It would be nice, for now we have the user pushing it out manually. Is there a database/directory for teachers that we could use for the backend?
Re: Never got around to thanking that teacher?
#13I had some great teachers that I will always remember (what they taught me and their physical appearance). However I can't remember any of my teachers' names, whether it was elementary, junior high, or high school, or even university. I just don't have a good memory of names. This site makes me regret it :-(
Have an old yearbook?

#14Arghh! I had a long thank you written but it got deleted because I didn't fill in one one the fields. Nice idea otherwise.

#15This is fantastic! I way prefer this positivity over the judgemental tone of websites like ratemyprofessors.com Would be nice to break this down by region.
Thanks for the kind words, we have been pulling this together over the last few weeks but breakdown by region will be very cool. It has been interesting to see where students are coming from: Kuwait, New Zealand, Brazil, etc.
No thank you sir or madam! I only bring it up as I'm not from the US and would find it interesting to see more about the teachers in my city etc.

#16Anyone else interested in the fact that this was built on top of Tumblr? Its pretty awesome how simple this idea is over Tumblr...

#17Earlier quoted context omitted.
Click "What's This All About" on the top. Search is in the lower left.
We could probably make this featured main page and more explicit, Thanks for pointing this out.
If possible, it would be interesting to see it graphically on a map since it has all the city and states.
