Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 406 (Not Acceptable) http://www.haxx.ly/counter/58?referrer=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.haxx... Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token On HN Redesign http://www.haxx.ly/h/1m And so, doesn't work for me.

The actual code for that haxxly doesn't do anything (well - it attempts to load jquery and sets the font tag to arial). Check out http://www.haxx.ly/h/28 for a quick example. The 406 is the view counter just reporting you've viewed the page. The script error was an error on that particular haxxly.

Out of curiosity, why do you use 406 for your view counter?

Me too, on all URLs including the one you posted.

If you wouldn't mind, please send me an email with your browser: mike@haxx.ly Thanks heaps!

It's the same for me, Firefox & Chrome (Ubuntu) :(

Great idea. I like the ability to share with friends.

Some improvements/feature suggestions:

1. It will be helpful to have an easier UI to modify the css/js - something like what the stylebot chrome plugin does.

2. This gets into a nice place for discussing web sites within a team. I can imagine this tool being really helpful for Marketing teams.

3. The above might ask for features like the ability to replace some text, highlight other text easily, and add comments. You might want to consider something like WebNotes (http://www.webnotes.net/) for feature additions.

4. Similarly the above suggests charging options based on team size: publicly visible or 1 person teams would be free, but with larger organizations you can have a higher price point. Also paid users might be able to get get benefits like saving pages for more than 2-3 months and being able to create a report of the work that they did (for their bosses/clients).

This is a great idea, although for productive use I'd prefer that as a browser extension or bookmarklet, rather than having to visit a foreign website (haxx.ly). On the other hand, that separate website is a comfortable way to show my results to others.

Stylebot (chrome extension) lets you do that. That's actually what I use for HN, by example. It's a really good extension. Click it, click directly on your page to select a DOM element, enter any valid CSS, and it's saved for your next visit.
