eve rocks.
There are so many startups around these days producing flaky products which lack an interesting angle or idea. Although I've seen this sort of screen saver built in the old-world its great to see the concept resurrected in our time of social networks and online-social-overload! especially when its so slickly implemented. I was installed and up and running in minutes. Congratulations to the team and keep up the great work!
