YSlow is a great tool - I've used it a lot.
The main problem with using YSlow is it doesn't show performance trends over time. One of my goals for Slowcop is to give a dashboard where you can track performance across deploys.
Also, there are a bunch of other tools and features I'm planning to add, like measurements from different regions and tools that track lower-level HTTP issues.

Tool looks really nice. I expect you'll be adding resources to the Academy and then linking to them from the results page? Losslessly compress my images? Recommend some tools. etc.

No Download, simplicity and you can link reports to show others http://www.slowcop.com/reports/4d645d1434b95f34e70001f3
I dislike Y!Slow though not many good alternatives. This is a good contender.
