The idea for Barometer came when I wanted to add one of those black feedback tabs you see scattered across the internet to one of my website. The online services I found offering them were fully blown community support systems which were overkill for my needs.
I tried out the actual feedback forms and found they were cluttered and often forced you to sign up for an account just to leave a quick feedback message. The feedback form was data-mining. This seemed wrong when I was doing the website owner a favour and it surely would reduce the amount of feedback other people would send. I couldn’t find any web service which offered me the quick, simple, hassle free form I wanted.
Barometer is that missing free service I was looking for. Barometer allows anyone to instantly add a stylish Lightbox, AJAX, feedback form to their website, without having to do any custom coding. Using “The world’s quickest signup!” Barometer creates a few lines of HTML code which you simply copy and paste into your webpage’s footer. Simple, effective and free forever.
