  I love the energy behind this app and it seems like you accomplished what you set out to do, but I fail to see the utility – instead of pasting a file URL into a browser address bar, paste it into a text input on another site… how is that an improvement? Is this intentionally ironic? And the other functional component, the canned tweet, is too long and has a typo. Sorry, I had a hard time with this one.

  I am both confused and amused. That said, If I put in a javascript url, it generates a URL including it – Not really a major issue (since I can’t share what I pasted), but annoying none the less.

  I was expecting a downloader that showed a progress bar or something. Instead I copy it into a form field and then get a link to the file I just copied in? Whut? and the NyanCat is nicked.

  Awesome! I bookmarked it at once. I usually paste the url in a document with a a href and right click to download, now I don’t have to anymore! Thanks and good job! Oh where do I find it once NKO is over?

  So instead of pasting the URL into my browser’s address bar (or right-clicking), I have to go to your site & paste the URL into a form there?

  Well it does what it says on the tin so full marks for completeness. Not sure how pasting a URL into a form is quicker than pasting into the location bar.
