As each minute goes by, I get closer and closer to releasing the finished version of Polliethink. Although the site exists now, a more feature-complete version is on its way (hopefully this Friday, but I wont make promises). Tonight, I added an interesting (and presumably unique) feature to the site - encrypted email addresses. Read More »

You've seen them all before. Whenever you go to sign up for an account anywhere, your faced with it. The horrible mess of ineligible characters refusing to let you sign up until you get it right.
