A lament: https://song-of-github.herokuapp.com/?username=aaronsw

How fitting that it ends on a discordant note.

Doesn't seem to work anymore, I guess the autor removed it?

I just tried it again - it's working for me.

It works if you use http instead of https. I don't know why RyanMcGreal linked it that way. jQuery isn't getting loaded over https so that's why it's not working.

Here's the correct link: http://song-of-github.herokuapp.com/?username=aaronsw

It looks like my HTTPSEverywhere add-on automatically redirects from http to https on Heroku apps.

Funny - the https link works for me.

You're (probably) either not on Chrome (which blocks mixed content by default), or HTTPSEverywhere changes that feature (since blocking mixed content breaks a lot of websites' https version)

Firefox 19.0 - and you're right, I just confirmed that the https link doesn't work on Chrome.

Pull request is in: https://github.com/ajacksified/song-of-github/pull/8

This is only my second post so I don't know if this goes against the community guidelines but...

Hell yeah!, I love open source!

Thanks for the pull request! On it.

edit: aaand fixed. also, had to switch to google; code.jquery.com doesn't provide https :(
