This looks really cool and is something I'd definitely be interested in (been on the 'todo' list for too long)... but I really need more info to decide if I want to invest the time in trying it out.

Some kind of 'how it works' page ... how does information get from my app into yours, can I embed per-user links (for example for email confirmation), how do opt-out notifications get back from your app to mine, etc.

Minor UI issue ... the mouse pointer & hover action suggests that the day icons on the front page do something ... but they don't for me (Chrome 22, Windows)




I'll answer your questions here and then think about how to answer them on the site.

Q: how does information get from my app into yours

A: async javascript snippet. my co-founder has the scars to prove it is robust.

Q: can I embed per-user links

A: yep. our docs are a lot more elaborate than our user interface at this point, but you can do almost anything you desire. best to shoot me an email and i'll explain. peter@userfox.com

Q: how do opt-out notifications get back from your app to mine

A: we have a simple unsub API to communicate who has unsub'd, we handle the entire unsub from userfox emails obviously. you're going to eventually (soon) send all emails via userfox though.

Thanks for the note on the ui issue. we'll get it fixed.
