Side note: that re-implemented scrollbar is terrible. Makes it very distracting to read the whole thing. I'd suggest at the very least halving the time of the scroll "animation", if not ditching the whole thing altogether.

Will look into it, as it was just part of the WordPress theme we chose. Thanks for the feedback.

Chrome didn't show me a scrollbar at all--had to scroll to the end to gauge the size of the list. What's anyone got against seeing scollbars anyway?

I'm not really sure what's gained by reimplementing scrolling in the first place.

Misspell something so its not already taken, then choose colors via Feng Shui or some such.

"ripl" or some other play on "ripple" would have been a better name.

We thought about ripl and other words, but there we soooo many other apps with similar names. And we wouldn't have wound up with the froggie as our logo! :)

Just take a spirit journey like Erlich on silicon valley.
