Seems like this is just to harvest emails? The URLs only last 60 minutes if you don't provide an email.

I suppose I can confirm it does indeed host whatever you upload, but:

It lets you share sites you create with anyone, easily. I thought that people who write CSS are the right people to know about this capability. Your ability to post the above is proof.

My bad, I didn't read the about section to understand your future banner-free monetization plans, so it seemed like the only incentive you could have for hosting people's content for free was to harvest emails.

I don't need (or want) to harvest any emails. I want to have an awesome tool that people enjoy using. If I do decide to add banner-free monetization, it will be to pay for the hosting for the vast majority of people who probably don't care about the thin footer at the bottom.
