I am really interested in using Alertle. Is the company still alive ? Hope so.

I signed up and dig it, but somehow I either mis-remembered my password or (gasp!) there was a bug that caused it not to be recognized. I had the password reset, and that worked fine, but I would really like to change back it to something I can remember. I see no way to do that on the Alertle site (nor any place to ask how to do it, hence this rude butting in here). Is it possible?

Well, its good that this site isn’t asking for many personal information. But still I feel that its always good to keep an option of deleting account. I couldn’t find that option in this site. I hated it when facebook didnt let me “delete” my account. They only deactivated it. Well there, they had lot of personal information, so it was serious issue.

Apart from that while making login, it was a bit unclear as in where to type email id. May be you should ask for email id and password in one go, rather than 2 times. This way the thickness of the form will increase and hence it should be easier to find register form.

Congrats on your new venture!

I heard of Alertle a week ago, if I remember correctly, but didn’t know that you were behind it.

It might be for geeks, but it’s going to find a place soon in my heart. I’d love to use it as a reader for some specific feeds I track – like, for instance, for keyword tracking, etc.

Good luck! Hoping to see it get better.

Well great start up, but as Sumesh said IE support is required. Although its not the best of browsers, it still have around 60-70 % market share.
