This is totally off-topic, but how do they make the text on their webpage look so good? Is that a CSS thing?

If you're referring to the white shadow of the text, it is indeed css.
text-shadow: 1px 1px 0px white;

Thank you for the tip. I've always wondered how to make the fonts look engraved on the page.

You can also specify more than 1 shadow. You can add a light shadow below, and a dark one above, to achieve an "embossed" effect:
text-shadow: -1px -1px 0px rgba(0,0,0,.4), 1px 1px 0px rgba(255,255,255,.4);
Plan to make this a desktop utility as well, something that integrates with the desktop that allows you to right-click and "Zukmo" any given file. Even if you have to fake it by copying files to a temp directory and later sync them with your servers (why? better keep it private on users' machines.)
You will need integration with (MS|Open) Office sometime in the distant future.
Call Insync and see if you can integrate with their clients:

P.S. Nice clojure-like logo :-)
