Congratulations
I am so excited that I have found this web-site. I had an idea to do something like this years ago but I don't have the web skills. You have produced something that fits nicely between a calculator and a spreadsheet. Are you planning to make it an App or make it more mobile friendly with Bootstrap?

rows start out empty
Suggestion: allow a persistent setting that lets you decide if you want all the rows to start out empty
I strongly prefer having rows all be empty, as opposed to the default where it provides helpful examples. It is tiresome to clear the rows everytime if you use instacalc for small frequent computations, closing the browser tab each time.

Add remote variables
Allow me to embed a HTTP uri.
Treat it as any normal variable.
Expect it to return something you understand.
If it doesn't make sense, just set it to undefined.This would allow for dynamic calculators! Where I could include current information based on a database. Like my current rates, or whatever.

Thanks for the feedback — I’d like to do a pro version to help support development of more powerful features. Some things, like stock market prices, real-time editing, removing branding, etc. could definitely fall under this.
