Maybe, maybe not. I went to look at the site and it's actually pretty
interesting, and there's no sales-pitch (and I've been spammed more than
enough, thank you). I'll give it the benefit of the doubt (unless it turns
out that the thing dropped a cookie on my browser and has deciphered every
last bit of information about me ... Paranoid? About technology? Who, me?)

Cheers,
Paul
