Will overhear.us translate outside SF? - "corporate america is not centered in California"
I think all of these concerns that startup commenters keep raising about overhear.us is generally unfounded. Getting blocked at work is not the end of the line (it's a great thing if it reaches that point), and receiving registration confirmations at your company email isn't going to be a big deal either, I think.
These comments about its simplicity are ridiculous, even. Users don't care. They're not all browsing TechCrunch looking for the most complex-sounding startup to use. Simple, intuitive, effective design is the hardest thing to get down.
Has uncov written a SINGLE positive review of anything? If not, then what's the point? Being contrarian is easy. Having something to add isn't.
