Server not found

Firefox can’t find the server at urlazy.com,.

*   Check the address for typing errors such as
      ww.example.com instead of
      www.example.com

*   If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's 

network
connection.

*   If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, 

make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

After opening the site and reading a little to see what it does, I
clicked the “let’s get started…” link… once there I made it look
like this:

I don’t like the lightbox concept (read

) as a user… if you are going to use it, make it modal…

After typing some lazies, I typed .g and got 500 on
http://urlazy.com/redirect/search
:

Status: 500 Internal Server Error Content-Type: text/html
Application error (Rails)

I don’t like the background collor also =P

I think thats it… hth

There should definitely be a ‘private’ option. Someone already has the
‘Credit card’ shortcut set… and they probably don’t want the world
to see that. Something like urlazy.com/username/shortcut or even
username.urlazy.com/shortcut would be a good solution to this.

Also, I created a shortcut for ‘a’ but that url doesn’t work and it
doesn’t show up in my permalinks, but it also says that url is ‘taken’
when I try to use it again.

What is this nonsense: “http://urlazy.com/?
url=google.com&lazy=a&isu=&desc=#” ?

I definitely like the graceful handling of entering a lazy that’s not
already defined – just google it.

I used ‘?url=google.com&lazy=a&isu’ as a unique name, and that seemed
to cause problems :wink: In fact, starting any unique name (urlazy) with ?
doesn’t tend to work very well.

Overall, though, very cool idea. I’ve always wished I could extend my
Camino functionality to other browsers… and with this I almost can!

Thanks ALOT!! for all the feedback guys. (esp. justing & felipe)
I will look into it specifically and fix/improve according
to your suggestions.

Yours,
Samuel.

p.s the more the merrier…
if any one else wants to take a ride…

urlazy.com

works fine here!

Did you paid anything to anyone to upload your site?
