How's My Code? A simple, lightweight code review tool for distributed teams.

I'm somewhat bewildered why you require users to provide their real names. I also notice "thou shalt not block our ads" in your TOS. It's understandable from your perspective, but surely a negative from the user's perspective. Note that Opera installs with ad blocking on by default (if I'm not mistaken).

You could use an explicit "Dashboard" button someplace, because otherwise the layout is a bit disorienting after adding your first repo, then wondering how to get back to "that first screen". (I eventually figured that out.)

Otherwise, this seems like a good tool for teams. Good job.

If I'm building an ad-supported site, I don't care about users who unconditionally block ads. Those users clearly don't care about the people who make the sites they're using.

It's not about caring .. It's about how you want to experience the internet.

Would you rather have clear, readable content or be besieged by advertising ..

On sites target devs you should really expect very high % to be using ad blockers ... I'm yet to meet a single dev that doesn't use it in some form.

(edit: I didn't even realise it was ad supported for that reason .. still think its a good service though )

That's beyond silly thinking. I wouldn't click on Ads even if I didn't have Adblock on. I mentally block them out. That means I don't care about the site. Silly silly.

Our TOS says that!? Silly TOS... we use adblockers ourselves.
