Re: Our new startup site build on Django and GAE is now live!

If you use something like Firebug you can remove the blur layer and have a
look around (it's the actual site behind the blur).  In Chrome it detected
my location just fine and showed relevant content.  It didn't appear to need
any info from Facebook to function properly.

I actually authorized, but got a little creeped out by being asked for
three cities in which I'd lived before being able to continue.  I
entered one, but it still wouldn't let me pass without another two.  I
couldn't conceived of ANY legitimate reason to need anything more than
my current location aside from data mining, so I cancelled/logged out
and removed authorization from facebook. Behind the blur it looked
interesting, but you'll have to convince me you need all that info
before I'd ever register. I haven't even -lived- in three different
cities.

Or for people who care about a location for the location's sake rather
than their friends' opinions of it. Unless I'm travelling with or to
friends or people I know their input is pretty hit or miss anyway.
