Show HN: Taps.io is bit.ly for apps
- rohamg 14y agolooking good guys! it's possible to use Tapstream with our own url shortener right?
- slaven 14y agoYeap, they can be stacked and the destination URL can be arbitrary.
- n9com 14y agoIs this compatible with our own linkshare affiliate links?
- slaven 14y agoCompletely, it doesn't touch Linkshare unless you add it to the shortener.
- taproot 14y agoGotta say I was skeptical clicking the link, but after reading about how you plan to give app analytics, I'm amazed nobody thought of it sooner, its a great idea. Good luck on your venture.
- greendestiny 14y agoBit.ly for apps totally under sells it, I thought it was another url shortener for app store links. This is link to app install analytics solution. Very cool.
- khangtoh 14y agoI'm curious how TapStream auto-magically ids the user. My first guess is you guys are doing the app-safari-app dance at first fireup.
- slaven 14y agoDefinitely not! We hate the Safari dance - it fingerprints visitors based on their device info.
- bobbles 14y agoGod I hate the "X is Y for Z" idiom. Just tell us what you do. I don't know what every Y is on the planet.
- goldfeld 14y agoSimple question your front page should answer: does it work with web apps? As this is targeted at developers, I surely don't assume Mac OS and Windows 8 includes web apps.
- slaven 14y agoGood point - it's aimed at mobile and desktop apps. Web apps can do all sorts of tracking already via cookies, while native apps are completely sandboxed.
