We're aware of the email issue, and we're working to fix it. Please keep in mind that this is an alpha release from a small team in a little under two weeks, and there's a long way to go.

Same here. Server error upon using the email link.

And actually - this is because our Heroku sendgrid add-on ran out of emails so....herp derp. It's being taken care of; I'm not sure anyone imagined as much attention as it's gotten today.

What's up with the downvotes? I also feel like the best option to sign up to a twitter's competitor service is by NOT using twitter.

The signup button goes to a "Internal Server Error" as described above. He wasn't bashing anyone.

I think it's the concluding "Fail". It's a bit over the top in terms of tone.

As much as I'm sympathetic to a small team getting a spike in traffic, I stand by that comment... It's a pretty big "fail" when a huge rush of users trying to register results in... nobody being able to register. At the very least they could have been capturing the emails for later follow-up. How many of those people will remember to come back later and sign up again?

I'm not saying the substance of your comment is incorrect.

Folks need to lighten up, then. We're not curing cancer here.
