contestantThanks for your vote, much appreciated, as I followed the nodester story ;) Snippet as API is part of the idea, if you look at the Gravatar Snippet, it is using the MD5 Generator snippet through HTTP.
Awesome design for an awesome game. This one should be popular with code conference attendees who cant get enough warewolf when they're away.
Clever idea and well designed! Wish it had a share button for twitter, facebook, and linkedin.
Beautiful and creative app. I was wondering just the other day what happened to all of the ecard sites. I love the social media integration.

contestantThank you very much for your vote and comments! We really appreciate it.
Well done app! Great design and creative idea.
Beautiful design and clever use of the google speech api. Very responsive app!
Cool idea; however, it would have been more impressive to use WebRTC instead of Flash for the audio.

contestantHa! I spent the first 24 hours working with PeerConnection. Two streams worked beautifully. Even had video working well. We had to pivot to flash because for whatever reason, multiple peers would not work. I didn't want to sacrifice on the idea of supporting 5-10 people in a room just for the sake of WebRTC. I think it was a bug in the ICE handshakes. Streams were definitely connecting but no data seemed to come across.
I would love to hack together / contribute to a WebRTC client library while I still have a handle on some of the weird edge cases.
Fun to watch but it would be better to show tweets without having to hover over the images.

contestantYeah, I was thinking a sidebar of live tweets with images or something along those lines. Any ideas?
Cool hack plus extra credit for using WebRTC! Not sure how useful this application is outside of a few laughs with friends.
Creative idea with realtime collaboration. I like it!

contestantThanks for the vote!! We will continue to improve our idea and improve UI and UX :D
Great idea with a good video and marketing hook, "why should i have to remember tasks being asked of me?" I also like the name of this service and hope that it becomes a real product offering!

contestantThank you. We hope as well (and are working on it) :)
Creative sets but the design was similar to NKO's home page - not very original. Perhaps KNO should consider partnering with these guys on next year's competition.
Very responsive game with good sprite graphics. I didn't quite follow the game design though.
Interesting idea but needs a better design and more features similar to @newsle (http://newsle.com)

contestantThank you chris for your vote and feedback :)
Newsle's main value is to bring real real news that mentions your friends into your newsle stream to easy read it as a newspaper which could be interesting to you or might not.
My social newspaper's value goes of getting what interest from your social network.
I have a relative that plays Sudoku 3-4 hours per day. It's a very popular game. This game brings the fun of online scrable to sudoku. It's well designed and plays well.
This is a cool utility and I would use it! It would be great to add a back channel chat and/or question board where the audience could vote up questions to ask the presenter.
According to Wikipedia, people numbering in the millions look for their daily cross-word puzzles. This game brings the fun of online scrable to cross-word puzzles. It's fun!
Excellent idea and easy to use. It would be cool if these snippets became APIs that you could call from production apps and even mashup other APIs.
