    I have a question regarding the record audio feature. Is that all HTML5 audio? I see it opens and asks for permission to my mic in-browser in Chrome/FF. Do you have fallback set up for older, non-HTML5 browsers? I've been thinking of doing something with in-browser audio recording but thought that it wasn't widely supported enough. Interested in hearing your thoughts.

It's not too widely supported, but we only show the UI if your browser supports it. It's not our flagship feature or anything, so we didn't bother with a fallback.

I will look into making it quicker to get a direct link. Power users might also consider using something like mediacrush-cli.

I'll also try to improve the layout for skinny screens.

Thanks for the response! Sounds great.

I figured as much regarding the audio - I was just to lazy to start up parallels and check IE. I cannot wait until those types of features are more widely supported.
