Whenever I see websites like this, I always ask myself questions like "How much does it cost?" and "How does it make money?" and "Who's running this site?".

The fact that none of this information is shown scares the heck out of me. It's a shame - I like the concept.

Yeah, I should make that more clear. We built it for the Techcrunch Disrupt hackathon (and won a free trip to Paris as a result). It's on Heroku and I pay about $40/mo to keep the site up and running for people to use for free. SMS is currently disabled to keep costs low.
I built this for personal use & wanted to share for others to use. It's extremely cheap to maintain so I don't need to charge for it.
