Hi,

You project is interesting.
But the first time I landed on the page I felt something strange because you only had a fixed list of people to tip. (Initially it also made me think the whole thing was a scam).

It's a psycological problem until you find out that you can type whichever name you want in the url and you understand that you can tip anybody if you want.

So this is my proposal (not real code, just an idea, "a pull request is better than a thousand words"). I didn't test it since I had troubles starting up the environment and sorry I don't have a lot of time right now; probably it won't work.

I tweaked this a bit in c895d80 and 3090b32, and have deployed it as version 1.0.19: https://www.gittip.com/.

I wrote Embed #2 to update every 30 seconds or so, but that creates more
traffic than it's worth.

First this fixes a bug where XHR wasn't handled properly; apparently
it's xhr.onreadystatechange, not .readystatechange. Then we switch to
data-gittip-{base,username} for the data attributes, to make it clearer
for the user. Lastly roll this out as the new code for Embed #2 on the
profile page.

We added this way back in our first pull request, #2. As it suggests
there, this was in lieu of a real search feature. I think we should
remove it because:

- We no longer focus on individuals through their social network
  accounts
- We have a real search feature
- This clutters up the search page
- It's sugar for going to /on/twitter/foo/ directly; you can still get
  there
