I am always amazed at the level of snark that creeps up whenever someone has the gall to launch a product that is not sufficiently innovative (as defined by most of the commenters here). It does not matter that this functionality is trivially available to anyone with a CLI. There are tons of people who do not know what a CLI is and would not know what to do with it if they found one. Sticking a nice UI on a utility is a worthy innovation. I can imagine lots of web designers or non-technical people with blogs would find this very useful. Having more options to compress your images is a good thing. The fact that other services that accomplish similar things exist does not disqualify you from launching a service. How many Chinese restaurants are in your neighborhood? Let us choose to be on the side of the builder. It is hard enough to create stuff without having to deal with the snark from bystanders in the peanut gallery.
