> Why put a 'contact me' link instead of just listing the email address? I hate when I click 'contact me' and my native mail app opens. Nobody uses thunderbird mail, apple's Mail is okay I guess, and Outlook is just...no. Type out the stupid address and let me choose how I send it.
Ummm... top right is a "contact me" mailto link.

What. The background this was written on was pure white.
As mentioned, there are already lots of portfolio tools. However yours is really nice and I love the built in endorsement feature. My one criticism is there's too much branding on each user's portfolio. I wouldn't want the huge green "want a portfolio like this" link at the bottom of my portfolio. The logo link (top left) and "Powered by Hoverboard" link (bottom right) is enough.
You should really have one sentence explaining what it does on the homepage. I'm not going to send a text to anyone without knowing what I'm sending first. Nice idea/design.
The short answer is yes. The slightly longer answer is, yes, but no two letter domains remain. Can you register something like d3.io? Yes. Can you register something like dx.io? No.
Nope, not any more. Assuming your tool is correct (which, from checking other sources, it appears to be), all two letter io domains are taken, even those starting with q. There are still a decent number of letter + number domains [1], along with a ton of three letter domains.
[1] I posted a list of letter + number .io domains recently: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5672237 - most are still available, but some were immediately taken due to the post and due to FramesPerSushi's tool (which I found rather useful).
