I just want to say how much I love your product. I have started putting my git commits in the block chain as a proof of existence experiment and recently at the World Crypto Network we put a hash of our Town Hall Meeting in there.
This is a very powerful idea. Thanks so much. I hope there will be updates.

Thank you for the positive feedback. My service was dying a while ago because I did not get any feedback but then someone had written an instant message with a donation of 0.5$ worth of bitcoins attached. This combined with your reply makes me optimistic about the service.
Latest developments (thanks to donations and people showing interest):
* optimized the decoder's HTTP queries by initiating cURL only once instead doing it for every query
* fixed a minor bug which made a wrong time to be written in the log at 100% CPU occasions
* CG Decoder now decodes randomly chosen blocks from the beginning of Bitcoin on its "free time"
* added a timeout of 30 seconds for the Decoder's HTTP queries (this should keep the service online more persistently)
Already working on:
* fix a bug in the user interface that currently obstructs the interface from decoding more messages after some time
everyone is welcome to write me their ideas for new changes either personally or in this topic
Oh you mustn't stop doing this, it's important. I am starting to think that this aspect of block chains is more valuable than the currency. Because it's not really money that has value, it's the work/movement it represents. If people can prove their work and have individuals independently verify it by performing checksums over the course of their life, then over time it would build up a picture of person's contributions to their civilisation. And not just the result but the evolution of their thoughts and plans.
A friend of mine made something similar for the alt chains but it was for Bittorrents: http://blockchain-link.com/
Money fills the gap between our purchasing decisions; our measures of sacrifice. But it dances with time too. Time and energy.
I will think more about this. Thank-you for your time and energy
