Three Practical tips to get your slidemail app more sign ups:

- You should have a call to action at the bottom of the page. It would be as simple as copy/pasting the code for the one-line email capture from above

- encourage sharing. i didn't provide my email address to test this, but you should encourage people (at some point: before signing up, right after signing up, or in a follow up email) to share this thing.

- I got the impression that it's iOS only. You probably got a lot of visits from android devices (check your own logs if you don't believe me). You could address that with a separate capture form using User Agent detection? Something like: "Get notified when we launch the Android version"

small nit pick about the page:

- <meta> tags are like <img> tags they should NOT have a corresponding close tag, "</meta>"

good luck with the app Vu

(i'm still using your old "hack" parakeet so i know you make some interesting stuff)
