Co-founder here. We got really, really good at building pretty decent apps in a hackathon timeframe. That's what we're offering - nothing more or less. I'm going to offer a freebie for HN users - the top reply to this comment which is a project we can take on and build, we'll do for free.

I'd love an app frontend for http://pizzacodes.com http://pizzacodes.com. This would basically consist of two unique pages / views: 1. A location search 'view'. 2. A Location view that would show a list of coupons for that given store. Both of these views would use an api that I create to return the nearby stores / content.

I don't know why Instagram or Twitter haven't done this yet, but I'd love an application that shows me the top 10 newsworthy photos on a world map (Google Maps). So in the US, I might see a few over NYC and LA or maybe another in the Gulf from a recent oil spill. The photos would change based on where I zoom in or out. The app could look at Instagram's popular page or how many retweets/favorites the photo had on Twitter, etc. It would be a visual guide to news. Future enhancements would see a scrolling timeline, so you could choose a date and location and see what was going on. And in a few years, the collection of photos would serve as an amazing location-based history of our world.

  This sounds like a really cool idea. We gave the freebie to someone else, but if you want to pay to have this developed, we can certainly do that for you.

I want a widget that I can use on my android phone to link things to my wife. I imagine something like this already exists,I just don't know what it would be called. I would like to: 1. Use a Google drive account as our shared storage space. 2. Be able to drag and drop files, images, links, maybe drawings to a widget that we each have on our phone. Maybe just having a separate option appear that says "send to widget thing" would be more reasonable. 3. I would like a notification to appear along with led notification. I would prefer to choose how the notification appears.

  What about something like pushbullet? It doesn't have a widget like you described, but it allows you to easily send files, links, etc to each other (you can send to 'friends' now too).

    This was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you.
