Tell HN: 50% discount on uservoice with code "startup101" (uservoice.com)

I don't know if this just happens to be my computer, but every time I click on one of the feedback tabs on a site, and it's hosted by uservoice, the overlayed box loads really slowly. Once I see the 'X' button load, I quickly close it as I've grown tired of waiting the 5 seconds.


this happens to me all the time, I thought it was my computer


While I appreciate the offer (and I have a uservoice account myself), how does this qualify as "hacker news"? It's more of an advertisement, no?


Does anyone know of a simple widget that you can host yourself that has a simple feedback form (bug/idea)?

I don't want to make my users register on another site or jump through hoops to actually provide feedback, I just want them able to provide feedback as fast and as simply as possible.

I'd love to see stats on click through rates from users clicking feedback. I expect it's quite low, especially if they ask for signup.


We are using Google Docs' forms tied to a spreadsheet for our startup. We have it load in a jquery window and looks decent, it is fully integrated, is customizable to be as complex or simple as you want, requires no registration and is free.


Good idea. I think something like this that has a great design by default would be a great open source project, and would be a better alternative compared to uservoice et al for most companies.


Interesting that SSL is $200/month extra. I am almost tempted to create a service that provides you with an https proxy for only $20/month...


for how long? Forever?
