Great! Big fan of Prismatic :) One thing I don't understand is that sometimes there's a dollar sign next to an article (eg one from Forbes.com). What does that mean?

#14I'd quite like to sign-up to this actually, I'm all for specific websites using my tastes to deliver to me what they think I'd like. Saying that, I'd like to sign up using my Google account, why must you be able to 'manage [my] contacts'. Is there a way to opt-out of that, or do I just have to sign up for a stealth account? A little off-topic, I do apologise.

These perms are just to be able to use your address book so that we can autocomplete emails when you email share stories.

#16Looks great! The underlying service is fantastic so it's good to see the web UI updated. I'd be curious to see some of the other design options they looked at. I have a few questions: 1. Why is the nav on the right? When I'm scrolling through articles I keep wishing the main content was more centered. 2. Did you guys look at doing a serif font for the header and a sans serif font for the summary? I feel like it would…
1. it may go away entirely soon or change dramatically. We largely agree with your sentiment. :)
2. Yes, the meta serif turns out to be as readable as it gets for body copy, it's just spectacular! We may later have a toggle so you can select this theme or an all sans serif option...

It means there is something you can buy. Click the link and you go to amazon and if you buy whatever the item is, we get an affiliate. this is early testing of the revenue model we're working on.

Okay, I'll trust you on this one! It's looking promising, Although I was a little stumped when it stuck me on a "We're learning your interests" page with no indication of...anything, really.
Also, maybe going to the 'landing' page when already logged in should re-direct me to my home page? It gave me the impression I hadn't logged in and got a little faffy.
Besides that,as I said, looking promising and I look forward to seeing what comes up over the next few days/weeks. Thank you!
