Cool service. However, it's generally bad practice to reveal your API keys.

Thanks! Just fixed.
Careful. All you've done is revise it. I could post a link or two that easily reveals it in your git repository revision history (6sus.. and 794e..).

Instead, I'll post this link: https://help.github.com/articles/remove-sensitive-data

(useful link, but it's probably easier just to expire it on CrunchBase and generate a new one, if they didn't already do that)
Please note that the keys will not be truly deleted, because they are still in the GIT history
Whoops! Should've mentioned that. :-D
