Ask HN: How Do You Consume Hacker News?
I'm curious since I for myself have not yet found the ideal set up and I'd like to learn more about how other USE HN.
- I bought an iPad app that crashes upon opening (no answer from the developer, can one get money back from Apple?), what apps are you recommending?
- I'm following ycombinator and newsycombinator as well as newsyc20/newsyc50/newsyc100/newsyc150 on twitter
- I have hacker news daily in my google reader, which lists the 10 most voted stories of the day before
- I periodically check the homepage and try to comment where I feel like I can contribute
That's it, so what's your "set up"?
- TMK 15y agoHas the news.ycombinator.com open on a tab in my chrome and check out the news about every ten minutes when I am on the pc to see if anything interesting has popped up.
- akkartik 15y agoWe built http://hackerstream.com http://hackerstream.com for HN power users to stay ahead of the pack.
- iSimone 15y agoThat is an interesting service. We had something similar in mind that we thought was worth building. The real time layer seems to add something to HN that makes it a lot easier to follow (and "manipulate" probably as well). But it is time consuming as well as @Hynek says.
- hynek 15y agoHacker Monthly + Hacker Newsletter. I need my time for actual hacking. ;)
- sdfjkl 15y agoEvery now and then, I open news.ycombinator.com and read some articles that sound interesting. When I run out, I also sometimes click on new/ask.
- gs7 15y agoI use a Greasemonkey script called Hacker News OnePage [1] that I customized to fit my needs. It puts HN in a sidebar and opens links in a frame to the right of it. Comments are also shown underneath that frame. It's very similar to HN Vue [2], but I have more control over the layout and can customize exactly how I want to consume HN.
