OT, but near the top of your front page:

  "Floobits works pretty well most of the time."
  Matt Kaniaris - Co-founder, Floobits
Can I suggest you change this? Makes me think it's not ready.. and "pretty well" "most of the time".. don't think I would want my team using it. Lost time is expensive.


I agree it's unprofessional. I put it there as a joke placeholder and forgot about it. I asked Christopher Groskopf if I could use https://twitter.com/onyxfish/status/431567402497609728, but then got distracted by the dozens of other things on my TODO list. Thanks for the reminder.


I liked the rest of your website. Looks like an interesting product. Groskopf's quote would be great for the front page.


I actually like it. It's pretty clear it's a joke. I always disregard testimonials like this anyway, at least this one made me laugh.


We haven't done A/B tests on the text, but I'm curious on the outcome. I'm not sure we would keep it even if yields better conversion.
