please set a location message, snooth

I searched for “yellow tail” from snooth’s homepage. It took me to results, but they were grayed-out, with a message about setting a location.

It’s an interesting attitude to getting a message noticed without loosing the context/appeal of the search results, but it’s also a little obnoxious, since it didn’t seem like it was absolutely crucial for me to set a location at that time.

The message is also a little too wordy.

pop-up

Yep, that was a popup (or pop-in? pop-under?), but it didn’t feel as annoying as you would think — it really fit with what I was trying to do on tripit at that given moment, and the overlay made me more confident that I was going to return to my previous task when done with the form.
