Facebook login only? This is a disturbing trend I'm noticing with a number of new websites/services. I don't think I'm alone in saying I don't like allowing apps access to all of my Facebook data and timeline. I won't use anything that only takes a Facebook login. Any plans for a stand alone login or is the Facebook data necessary for matching you up with people to chat with?

During the signup, I wouldn't animate the progress bar. I waited for half a minute expecting something to happen until I realized you were waiting for me to fill out a form.

Other than that, let's see what happens!

And hitting return anywhere in the signup page just reloads the page and looses the form for me in Chrome Canary.
