It would be awesome if it worked on Google.com / YouTube.com and some of my local news websites. Uninstalling for now, but I’ll try it again in a few weeks - the idea is very promising to me and the world desperately needs this. My day just got better thanks to this developer, even though there is still room for improvement. Good luck!

Updates won't do any harm. Going off the dev mode however will wipe your partition, so Chromebrew will go away as well.

It's caused by an ugly workaround I used to enable Safari. I'll fix it as soon as I get home, thanks for the feedback.
Re:Ask HN: Your favorite to-do list or task manager? on Sunday March 03, 2013 @03:20PM (#5315105)

I have recently made a small todo webapp because I needed one myself, it's still deep in beta, but besides few UI flaws on WebKit works pretty well: http://www.rodosapp.com/

You can add a new group just for yourself or add some people to it, you do it by typing their email address to "add user" field. Of course that user has to be already registered in the app.
