I have made it into a quick little desktop (fluid) app with some minor css changes to help it blend in a bit
Heres a screenshot: http://www.webnibbles.co.uk/dropbox/workFlowyFluid.jpg
If you are interested in running this standalone (OS-X) you can get the app here: http://www.webnibbles.co.uk/dropbox/WorkFlowy.app.zip
Or you can get fluid from here and give it a go yourself: http://fluidapp.com/

I would respectfully say just the opposite. In a 45 second video, they showed the product, I saw someone using it who already knew how to use it and I had no more commitment than clicking "play". In my book, they got it exactly right.
A video is great but many people aren't going to bother with it if they aren't otherwise interested. "A Better Way to Think" means nothing to me and is the only other thing to grab my interest. I would have clicked away in about 2 seconds if I didn't come across this on HN. EDIT: Why not something like "Your Brain. Organized. Everywhere." for a headline? It doesn't seem to be "a better way to think" but a way to "org…

I live in a country with one of the slowest Internet connections out there, I'd really rather read a 2-line paragraph description than watch a 45-sec video. Besides, YouTube is blocked in most offices - like mine.
If you live in such a country do you expect free internet services to target you? At my startup a country with horrible internet is a country I do not care about, sorry but there's just too many other people to target and other things to worry about. The sense of entitlement to free services also bugs me.
I wonder where you got "entitlement to free services" from.
Woah. I get a very 37signals-esque feel from this. You know, the feeling when you've found something really awesome that could really help out your daily organization? I used to use backpack from 37signals, but ended up favoring my Moleskine. I signed-up for WorkFlowy and created 5 lists and I think I could use this on a daily basis. Simple and to the point. Help me remember the random things that go through my head…

Very nice! I really want to attach screenshots to items. I'm going to use Workflowy while programming... whenever I notice a small tsak (such as refactoring a hack, reformatting some code, etc), then I'll add it as a Workflowy item. But rather than type out an item description, it would be way easier for me to simply screenshot the code. (I do alt-printscreen, paste into MSPaint, save to dropbox, copy public link.) O…
Nice. Yeah, attachments & embeds are going to be cool. So, sounds like for you just linking to an image plus previewing it in the display will be enough? Sounds like you wouldn't want us to let you upload the image to our site, right?
That said, you likely don't need to worry about being able to upload to your site right now. Attaching an image seems like a pretty special-case thing, so you could simply support an external URL for now...
To answer your question: yes it would be ideal if I could "attach" an image URL to an item. That would then show a small ~(128px by 128px) thumbnail. Clicking on it would pop up a new tab and navigate to the image URL.
