    Louis, thanks for the review! Scrapplet IS powerful, AND flexible, and GEEKY! And we hope that with continued feedback and lightning turnaround times we can evolve what we believe is a pretty cool platform to be highly adaptable and userful to all!

    Duncan Riley correctly noted that this product could have some reach
    in the consumer space, if it were made easier to grok. The tendency is
    to add as many ways to tweak a service as possible, but typical
    consumers want things simplified, even if they are not as robust.

    Agreed. Got the technology part right -- and having a blast fine-tuning the rest to appeal to the various market opportunities -- Looking forward to your (and your readers') input to help take Scrapplet to the next level! Stay tuned as we tend to move FAST!!!!!

    Steve, looking forward to getting more updates on Scrapplet. I can see
    this new Web engine is the foundation for a lot of flexibility and I'd
    like to see some more success stories of well-designed pages, and new
    features.

    Louis, I'm currently holed up in my cave, taking in all the feedback, and looking forward to emergin after the holidays with more goodies. Along with that, we're seeing great things being done on the platform by the user base. Hope to have a bunch of stuff for you to look at within the next couple of weeks -- and will greatly appreciate your feedback! Thanks, Steve.

    This is a really neat idea, and I see some great possibilities for it. Like if you're job hunting you could create a scrapple of all your social networking stuff and make it easy for potential employers to see what you're up to. The same would go for if you're a consultant and you want to make it easy for potential clients to see what you do online.

    A business could use this as an aggregation site for their social media efforts and make it easy for consumers to find various ways of contacting them online. This is a brilliant site, thanks for bringing it to our attention.

    @Josh, thanks for the comments. We are already seeing folks do things with Scrapplet beyond OUR imaginations --- and we've got a pretty good imagination! Stay tuned for more!
