fyi: we downloaded the screensaver from the link you provided, and it froze two different imac computers. Not sure if that is a bug you know about. We left for lunch, came back and could not get past the background of the screensaver (the weather data stopped showing)
yes @Jeff Broderick, I'm the guy with the other imac computer (@Robin Hjelmeir mentioned above). Not sure what the glitch is but i had to uninstall it.
@Robin@David Yikes! We have been getting some reports of bugs. Most computers seem to work though. We will have to dig deeper and see if we can fix it. Sorry about that!
@Jeff Broderick This is really sick! I downloaded the screensaver and even though it works when i preview it, when it activates for real it gives a popup every time asking to access location data even when i have the location hardwired. Since you have to move the mouse or press enter then after the popup the screensaver just disables since you had to move the mouse or press a key. ideas?

For some reason I am really excited about the launch of this screensaver. We have put a lot of work into it to make sure everything is perfect.
This is a preview of the preferences window. :)
Visit 4cast.me to see what the heck I'm talking about.

Nice. Really dig the '4' icon. The site is cool, too. So is this going to be a thing where you can set that kind of info as your screensaver, then?

Very cool. Can you add a "get notified when we launch" to your site so people can signup to get emailed when you launch? I'd love to be on that list.

Very, very nice work. Looking forward to the extention & screensaver. I'll probably donate later this week.
The only thing I would suggest changing is the weight and margins of the blinking cursor.
sidenote: it plays nicely with desktopr: http://cl.ly/JIPw (app)

Saw it a few days ago. I love it. I hope you'll consider adding international locations.

You need to stick a "notify me" form on those coming soon pages. I wanted to fill one out, but could not. :(
