The requirement of an email address makes this a non-starter for me. I think you should be able to search and add without an email address. The reminder feature should be optional.
An OS X dashboard widget would be very useful, as well.
Yeah, we get that a good bit about the email. That's what we use the Firefox extension for, but a dashboard widget would have the same freedom.
The problem is (a) the site is free/ad-free and intends to remain as such, and (b) it's difficult to make that optional because it's really the only reason the site exists. To have some mechanism to remind users to provide solutions (in the timeframe that they remember them) is essential.
That's why the widget/extension model is going to be a big part of our plan, because those can allow the user to get subtle reminders/counts without having to have any email address involved.
Still, we'll continue to brainstorm. Any other suggestions would be very welcome. Thanks a lot for the feedback.
