#2Fantastic idea and looks like it might be nice implementation, just not enough detail on the product for me to sign up and have a play.
No ToS, no privacy statement, nothing. Who are you?
Also:
1. Can I mark my account as hidden until I want people to see it?
2. What will you do with my data? Note, with LinkedIn it's pretty clear what they're going to do from the get-go just because of the nature of the service, with this there's nothing. Are you going to sell my details to recruiters? If so can I opt out? Do I have to pay rent if I do? Note some people won't care (perhaps a lot), this community is a bit of an outlier when it comes to privacy concerns.
3. What domain will I have, can I use my own?
4. Can I change the default style (as the example isn't really to my tastes)
Edit: One last thing, a full size example would be good too. You must have your own?

#3My resumes are typically tweaked to be job specific. Do I get to create just one generic apply-to-all copy?
How about tracking metrics other than just views? Following http://paulbutler.org/archives/experiment-in-testing-my-resu... there are: how far into resume one scrolls, clickthroughs on embedded links, inclusion/exclusion of sections (e.g. grades for recent grads).

Agreed, its a little over-simplistic. Add a button with a FAQ or something and the content can be kept simple on the main page.

#5Yeah it's simple. But if you want simple and better, http://re.vu/ is far superior.

I signed up just to poke around. Here's a full page example:

There seems to be no style options and no domain/URL options. You just fill in boxes and it generates a random URL after your username as the resume. You can have more than one resume with different random URLs.
There's a LinkedIn import button to grab your list of employers and dates of employment, but it somehow gave me the wrong dates.

#7viewed impressions is not the most important number..
if you look at the typical hr or recruiter workflow its when they copy/paste the resume into an email impressions that matters..
that is why with my boilerplate framework I use tynt services to track that..
boilerplate framework should be up over this weekend at my github account..

I'm working on adding relevant policy pages now. Building the site sounded more fun :)
Resumes are hidden until shared with people by giving them the URL. Everyone has a business card, which is public. I'm planning on making it so you can choose to have a resume replace your business card.
Here are mine:
- http://resume.io/jacob - http://resume.io/jacob/glistoisog
Planning on adding custom domains soon! Only the default style for now, but adding more to choose from is certainly something on the roadmap.

I guess I've recently gotten signup fatigue as previously I'd have made a throwaway for it, thanks for the example!

You can fork a resume to a new URL and customize it for each job.
Interesting! Will look into those.
