- hellosmile 6y agoupvote!
- javaughn12 6y agothanks, Smile!
- javaughn12 6y agoJavaughn here, I'm on the team that built TLDW. The most precious things for founders is usually time and knowledge/insights. Having to watch start-up videos often waste time, so why not skip to the part of the video that answers the questions you're trying to ask? TLDW allows you to do that and so much more! Enjoy and upvote us if you like it. Happy to answer any questions you have too!
- qppo 6y agoWhy doesn't your website respect the "back" button?
- javaughn12 6y agohi qppo, we built this site over the last few days for a hackathon, so haven't be able to make all the product edits we wanted to create a delightful experience thanks so much for your comment and for checking our site
- joypatel0123 6y agoIf only you could run this on all of youtube..would save so much time

- javaughn12 6y agooh didn't think of that! thanks codetrotter
- skeselj 6y agoI think this is a great product you've built. Suggestion: for each snippet / moment you show, show the thumbnail at that time.

- javaughn12 6y agothat's a good idea! we're definitely looking into how to do that
- caseyf7 6y agoThis is really great. Will YouTube let you monetize this in any way?
- javaughn12 6y agoThat's a good question, Casey!We're not sure, but will look into it
- ashwinl 6y agoYes! Finally. Feature request: user generated time-synced commenting Breaker, Genius.com-esque?

- kinganurag 6y agoI think this is a great idea. I wish you luck. You probably have plans to promote. If not already, you should start building the email list for your self and launch on as many platform as you can, ex: product hunt, pitch ground, app sumo, there are so many :) As a founder myself, i wish you all the success!

- stratenjine 6y agoHi. I did something similar back in 2016 - scripting/abusing the youtube api to skip inside the video. https://tldws-16b54.web.app/#/discover https://tldws-16b54.web.app/#/discover A little side project that went nowhere. Website's up, but I'm not sure api calls work anymore. Anyway, I'm all for TLDWing videos. You are welcome to message me if you think I can contribute eyalfein@gmail.com
- javaughn12 6y agoThanks, Stratenjine! Also love the name YouTuLong
