   Kickstarter backer here. Funny how critical everyone is as though there is no demand for something like this. Well, over 2000 of us disagreed before iconic was even delivered. I've used Fontawesome, I've used Entypo, I've use

   Thanks very much Aaron. I took a look at those principles and it was a reassuring list that I might be doing something right :) I'll try and reach out in the next few days once I've had more time to read about indiewebcamp.

   OP Here. Just wanted to add that I think this is of particular interest to the HN community because the iOS app, which conforms to the open protocol, allows any developer to create a web service with a complying API to receive social conten

   I actually don't get this mentality. You are saying you would prefer to receive irrelevant ads? To me the worst thing about advertising is its lack of relevance most of the time. When ads are targeted I at least feel like I'm gett

   Same. Given all the awesome software that comes out of Toronto, this is really not something I'm proud to see ranking up on Hacker News.

   Neat project. I poked around a bit and had a few pieces of feedback. - I like the full disclosure aspect. If I weren't comfortable in a whole copy-paste, being able to get an easy list to evaluate sources myself would still be handy. -

   I had a look, neat. So what is this build on? How are you expecting other to contribute and incorporate social aspects like in the movie section?

    Cool, I like the flat look. Why not more screenshots though explaining what it is and showcasing more features?

    Interesting idea. I like the design of it overall and it flows nicely in all sizes. I think I would have to sign up and start using it to see how it feels. I'm wondering if there's a way you can sell the key benefits on the homepa

    I didn't even notice that functionality and I think it's a really cool benefit of this website. I'd change the icon to something more well understood like maybe the Stack Overflow or Reddit style look for voting

    Thanks for the feedback, that's a really good point and very relevant to a challenge I see for myself. I think I still need to work on explaining it better and getting the whole point across. It's weak on explaining how it is actu

    That's a great resource. It's been a while since I did a job search but I know last time what a mess it was in comparison to having such a large list at quick disposal. I've bookmarked it for future use.

    Cool projects. The bootstrap one I don't quite understand. Who exactly are you targeting with it? Individual websites with bootstrap that want to switch their look up often? The unreplied project I signed up for. It seems like a good i

    I'm working on http://postcardsocial.net/ I'm building this for a couple key reasons: 1. I wanted a better way to directly get social content on my own website as I blogged less and less and used social media more
