Looks like a great product!

That being said, I can't be the only one who misread this as "runescape". Fortunately, I doubt there's significant overlap between users of runscope and of runescape :)

You're not the only one: http://www.bing.com/search?q=runscope

We'll get there :)

I really hope runscope will be successful - John Sheehan is an awesome guy!!

Here's an interview he did with API economist that I posted a while back: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5683760

Thanks, you're very kind :)

Techcrunch just announced Runscope raised $1.1 million from True Ventures & Andreessen Horowitz https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5752784

Runscope is amazing. I got my invite a week or so ago and it's been a great, beautiful experience.

I read runescape!

Not a bad idea given the prevalence of REST but it won't help with more performance oriented messaging eg 0mq or message queue oriented integrations.

I'll keep the product in mind though.

Won't help...for now. We don't have any specific plans around that yet, but it's something we've discussed. We've got an interest in applying some of the same concepts we have for APIs but in a way that won't compromise performance for high-performance messaging systems.

The site design/responsiveness is excellent.

Bootstrap.

It helps no doubt (though the signed out site is not using it that extensively), but you still have to pay attention to the details. Our designer did an amazing job with it.

Let me guess... that designer was... you? :):):)

Congrats on the launch - will be neat to see what this turns into.

You did a good job using Bootstrap. ;)

This is over the top awesome. Really just a well-executed tool for developing with/against apis. Literally had it up and working in our QA environment in 30 seconds.

I'm interested to see where you go with it.

This looks great. I've read through the site copy, but I'm having trouble figuring out how it ties into my workflow. I was about to sign up, and then I closed the tab. As cool as the GIF is, I'd much rather see a short video of the product. Or some pictures / screenshots elsewhere on the site.

Wow my problem was bigger than I thought it was. I actually thought this blog page _was_ the homepage of the site. Never thought to click the logo in the upper left until now. Now I get it :-)

It's always bugged me when I went to a blog post for a new company and it was completely detached from the main site. Looks like we maybe went too far the other direction :D

Looks great! Any plans to support OAuth 2.0? Maybe even with an access token generator?

Hmm that's a good idea. Let me work on that.

OK, done: https://www.runscope.com/oauth_tool

I haven't had a chance to get that into the docs and editor yet. Will do soon.

Awesome, thank you!

maybe i'm the only person who would complain about this, but is that a 588KB GIF? sometimes my home internet gets so bad i get 10KB/s[1], and i live in america...

[1] even when nobody else is using it

That is abysmal. Have you no option of changing provider? Perhaps it is a local issue due to poor wiring quality? Dial up is better than that...

For me, the Passageway is the KILLER feature. I'd subscribe just for that. But not with Python. Any plans for a non-Python version (.exe, Win service, etc)? Thanks!

edit: clarity

Absolutely on our roadmap! Passageway is still in Preview mode right now, but we wanted to get it out there into people hands to get great feedback like this. Thanks for checking it out!

Thank you very much! I subscribed to get email updates.

Could anyone explain this in terms for a beginner? I'm a developer who is using APIs (I think), but I don't quite get why I need this. Thanks!

Would be nice if the title had a few words describing what it is.

I believe it did before but it looks like it got edited.

I know its a Freudian slip, but I totally read Runescape
