I am directed to immediately give all my contact information so I can be contacted, but I can't even test the service. Yeah, no. Uninstalling. Waste of time

Awful! Enter your query, hit the search button, and all it does it to take you to the Home page of Storyful.com. Must be a bug, but in any case, disappointed.
