Robby,
Glad you fixed the Affiliate ID. We appreciate you linking to us, and want to make sure you get credit for any referrals
For the settings, yeah, there's a lot going on. We're always trying to simplify things, and if you ever have any suggestions for how to improve things, we'd love to hear them.
Finally, regarding your other ideas.. we're in the early planning stages of a Twitter extension now. We were hoping to have it out later this summer. While still possible, it may not be until Fall that it's available. As for chat component, do you mean so users can communicate with each other on your site? Curious as to what you're looking for specifically, but don't have any plans for chat stuff (right now)
Thanks, and good luck,
Alex
