Last Thursday, I built a simple service that took a screenshot of a supplied URL (sitegazer.herokuapp.com). It became very popular on HN (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6612286 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6612286) and quickly failed to scale. The residual traffic has resulted in about 500 URLs snapped though -- enough to motivate me to continue the project.
DailySiteSnap is actually what I set out to build (SiteGazer was an MVP) because I wanted to track the visual/design progress of my other project, CameraLends.
The payment plans haven't been wired in, so right now all accounts are still free. Please give feedback if you have any! I plan to launch the paid features in the upcoming week.
