Thanks everyone who gave me feedback on the beta! The command-bar and the scratchpad view seemed to be well-received, and I’ve put the former on the main site:

You can now browse through the available commands and see some examples of how they are used. The rest of the site got a face-lift as well. The scratchpad will be going to the homepage as well, but there’s a bit more I’d like to do with it.

But what else has been keeping me busy? Well, there’s a conspicuous tab on the homepage. And it is a bit strange to have only one: the reason being that it will have a neighbor in the near future. InstaCalc is about making numbers easy and fun to share, and I have some ideas around just that

By the way, I was fortunate enough to get mentioned on a discussion of Web interfaces on CodingHorror:

Online applications may be awkward, but they do one key thing that local applications can never do: embed snippets of live content in a web page. Instacalc may never be Excel, but so what? It’s a completely different use case. Instacalc is ideal for embedding bite-sized, interactive nuggets of calculation next to a paragraph of text on a web page. It’s the YouTube of spreadsheets.

It’s an interesting article, I encourage you to check it out.
