Very cool. A website to find the missing ingredient. I can see using this for two of the three irons I have in the fire. The third one I was fortunate to find my complementary opposites at a Christmas party. Great idea and thanks

Haha! Thanks, man.

We can't wait to get everyone on board, and good luck at this year's Christmas party!

Pretty cool, a similar concept like StartupHub [0]... (also in the making) [0] http://www.startuphub.io

Neat! We're planning to launch this week, so we may have them beat there (wink), but we're focusing on side projects, not startups. We know everyone can't be fully dedicated to a new company, and many people have families and bills to pay and they can't take the risk of the business failing.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Hey! Thanks for letting us know. I'm fairly certain that the JS is okay, as this is the first time the issue has been brought up, but we will throw that error in the event that someone has already signed up for Meeet's mailing list. Could have you put in your email prior to that?

Yo! That's awesome you figured it out. Yeah - I'm fairly certain that's exactly what the issue is. The reason you're not seeing the real error is that we get the errors via not-so-readable JSON from the Mailchimp servers, and the JS email library we are using displays that error message for ANY error returned by the server to keep things simple and prevent confusion, though it seems to have caused a bit of confusion…

Got it, thanks! Looking forward to checking it out.

It might just be my ancient setup, but I see that after signing up, the green box prompt is clipped. It reads "Almost finished...check your"

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:24.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/24.0

On CentOS 6.5 x86_64

(yeah, I know, embedded development workstation)

Haha! Yeah... I think that's probably a compatibility issue with the older setup. I ran it on my Ubuntu 14.04 Chromium and Firefox (latest version) with no issues. Sorry!
