  • Steep.it – the simplest internet tea timer EVER.

    After giving the front page of e.ggtimer.com a makeover for the amazing David Lemieux, it occurred to me that I was using the timer a lot for tea. A tea-centric version of e.ggtimer immediately came to mind and I quickly found the perfect url: steep.it. I talked to David about it and he was totally into it and even made a few upgrades to the timer. So now, you have the easiest way to time tea steeping with the internet you’ve ever seen.

    If you haven’t used e.ggtimer yet, you should go check it out. The great thing about it is that you type the time you want right into the url. This works great with Steep.it because you can type it just like you’d say it. Just type in steep.it/3minutes and you’re timing. You can even type in shortcuts like steep.it/black or steep.it/green for the best average steeping time for those kinds of teas. We’ve also provided a handy timing chart on the homepage in case you’re not sure how long to steep it.

      I would say additionally composing a small “fishing lure” software may possibly improve.

      Hi. I don’t know if this is something you can do on your end. (I assume so.) Here it goes:

      Can you make it so the favicon isn’t blank when it’s dragged to the bookmarks bar? I’d use Favicon Picker*, but it doesn’t work with Firefox 6.

      Thanks!

      Hey Meri! I’m afraid I’m not sure how to resolve the problem you mentioned. The site has a favicon and when I create bookmarks in Chrome I see it. I did not see any favicons in Safari or Firefox, perhaps there are specific app settings that tell the favicon to display?

      Sorry!
