I just hope your domain name does not drag your project down. Del.icio.us is as piece of cake, compared (compared with del.icio.us because I had to chunk it in a similar way). If I were you, I would really look for another name, ASAP.

Was looking for a comment in that spirit to avoid creating a redundant version and there it is.

The article in question was submitted by "pg". Wow! Confidence of having all this stuff available, because someone running the service really cares, is part of HNs charm. Discussion and people are main reasons, of course. HB HN! Happy 6th

Thanks for pointer to http://www.skimhn.com/ . It feels like gasp of fresh air. Sifting through list of highly diverse material, which Hacker News is, is a real cognitive load (citation need, I know). Now, this is elegant.

I used to use Del.icio.us and _loved_ they version 2.0 look. It was beautiful service I would happily pay for using if I had to. I was so dissapointed at the time they were killing it, I never switched to pinboard or anything like this. No

Wow! Author here, did not expect this to get submitted to HN yet (was going to finish out a few more levels this weekend and clean everything up). Forgive the giant "TODO" in the help dialog. Simply enough, http://pineapple.io/ was diss

As a seven years old, all I wanted (and saved up for) was the biggest, most generic set I could possibly have. I still remember running like crazy to see my mom coming back from the city, carrying LEGO 733 Universal Building Set. Highly bra

Ooops, I paid twice - gift for son of my cousin (yay!) and for myself. How he could go on an adventure and I would not follow? Also, trying to login while he was offline felt so cheap. After we started building together I tried to destroy o

Not to be inquisitive, but I wonder how they make money. From the website it seems they only sell Fitbit [0]. Amazing how one such stream of income can support the whole enterprise and generate revenue. This model (free service/soft + hard

Oh, great to see link here. I suggested site to couple of friends, we loved it and then it went dark. Thought it was gone, wouldnt recheck.

I feel I started playback by accident. Edit: It kind of makes sense to click title to play it, after all.

Classy. YouTube video uploaded on 6th May of 2011. Invites are (sic!) for 12:00 UT 06/28/2009. but... MailOnline article published 3rd July, 2012 is a linkbait.

I had the same feeling, to a point where, wanting to send some link replying to a friend, I am condfident that story will still be on the first/second page. These two may help see what's happening http://hn4d.com/ , http://hnrankings.info

Same here. Please show karma in the popup. Left lower corner (orange bar of the popup where you have submissions and comments) seems perfect for this. Edit: Only now I see that karma is shown next to user name (thought you were not showing

But is there any actual reported widespread case? cf http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4197340 It may turn out that we are getting there.

Buy a quality kill-o-watt - you will know for yourself (it's fun). My take-away after few weeks of measurments: - Mind your old devices! (My old Sony midi-hifi was running 20W on standby! Killed.) - Make a shortcut to switch off LCD monitor

In addition to trackers, didn't Sonique sound better than Winamp? Same thing with XMPlay [0]. Much better sound (me thinks). [0] http://www.un4seen.com/xmplay.html

I assume someone uses QR codes, but I don't know who, and I don't see why they are popping up in so many places. They live in Japan. QRs are very old news there. I couldn't really tell more (I've never been to Japan) but this must be it.

Being able to check time logged against projects is first, crude metric. I settled on an app with week view as a default - one glance and I know everything. Some of my friends freak out at the possibility of 'wasting even more time' by try

People tend to treat CC licensed stuff very fuzzily. Once I was reading an article on copyright and using CC licensed material. It was a well written piece, yet image at the top was violating CC license(!). It was a crop from 'no-derivativ

I dont think we are going to see a single pop-up anytime soon on HN. (Quick edit: Site has minimal 'html/css only', _flat_ feel and pop-ups are a different breed.)

Probably you will not get a proper answer, yet you've put this question ringing in my head in a very elegant way.

"Though it did't help that the genre's are great fits for the tracks I listened to, that does tend to happen with amateur music." You mean are not ? :) It's interesting how many preconceptions we have - I mean, selecting 'ambient' I were p
