   Wow, this sounds very similar to an idea I started working on last year ( http://playrelay.io ) right before my daughter was born. Someday I will get back to it. Good luck!

   Odd but this made me think of _The Long Walk_. First one to stop coding gets it!

   I should dust off my NodeRed project from last year. It provided a neat pubsub system for node.js and redis.

   I initially read "Mysore" as a strange spelling for "Missouri" and then realized Mysore is a city in India.

    Neat. I did something similar for my graduate thesis project a couple of years ago, but to play pool/billiards on the computer using real cue sticks (for practice and feel) http://mixedrealitybilliards.com

    I would just forgo the launch image for Instapaper then. Just get the UI up as quickly as possible. Also, supporting "multitasking" on iOS 4 helps with getting the UI up quickly when brought into the foreground.

    This looks good. It would be great if it could perhaps default to always adding a checkbox to each entry but I suppose typing a '_' is not exactly difficult. Also, the ability to add notes that contain URLs that are auto-linkifed would be v

    Sorry I was unclear. Multiplayer on iOS is a huge market. But with Apple providing peer-to-peer built-in a hosted solution such as PlayRelay might not find many fans. Game Center might be "good enough". That is why I am trying to add things

    http://playrelay.io I wish I had some time to finish it (client work first)! It also might be a miniscule market.

    I know Readability is a bookmarklet but your comment made me search the FF add-ons for a Readability add-on that was applied to every page I visit automatically. That might be a nice hack.

    I did the same for "Darts." What I experienced is that an A.I. logic bug got reported about 5000 times.

    I am more interested in the server-side sandbox. There are a few like codepad, SPOJ but not many that with source available.

    The redis python client already uses an API that maps 1:1 with Redis which makes it simple to read the redis docs and get going. Store a dictionary: import redis r = redis.Redis() r.hmset('key', dict(foo='bar', n=42)) Store

    My first program was a curses-like Yahtzee written in QBasic when I was 16. I recall learning about particle systems about that time. If you got a Yahtzee in the game, gratuitous explosions congratulated you. It was utterly ridiculous but

    Yes, it does work quite well for me. I could easily be an outlier and got lucky because of the name (literally "Darts"). Note that I am not using iAd (yet?). I started with Admob, then moved to Adwhirl and noticed that Quattro worked out
