I wrote http://nirmalpatel.com/largetype/index.html awhile back. You don't need to click a separate button to get a url, the data is encoded in the url as soon as you set the message. It doesn't have different display options. Just white

I first heard of this mechanic when digg launched their ill-received url shortening service. I wish all url shortening services did this. As far as the bookmarklet goes it would be nice if you could set some of the common options, page-size

Safari allows me to save my site, mentioned below, to PDF perfectly but also fails on your link and the opposite is true for pdfmyurl.com. Edit: It appears to be the advanced option "print-media-type" that is the problem. Browsers do it by

I may be mistaken but no where in this article does it say that Noah Everett makes $5million a year. It does say "revenue projections: $3-4 million" and "#1 – have a company worth 8 figures by 24, #2 – have a company generating 7 figures/ye

Upvoted and if you're worried about url length try getting a Cayman Islands (.ky) domain. I could see using sound.ky/165pgx or may even snd.ky/165pgx although the latter gives me bad vibes.

It appears to be using the spotlight index. I wish it would also allow opening directories. I often have common filenames in each project directory (i.e. website1/index.html, website2/index.html). Would be nice to say "open website1" and ha

Unfortunately, the page that frames the article and comments side-by-side is throwing a 403 and I don't know why. Still debugging... The page works when I launch it locally but not when it is on my host. I put in a support request. [EDIT :

I wanted to know more about a standard way for finding a shorturl version for any page I'm looking at. I found this proposal that is supported by some but it's not clear what the adoption rate is. Do other HN'ers know of other such standard

Before Chrome, I was a heavy Safari user. I'm rather happy that they are shifting resources away from Gears towards standard compliance. Then maybe those who need the power of Gears can stop running Safari in 32-bit mode. I'm also excited a

This was a quick extension I made to learn Chrome extensions and bring Safari 140 ( http://www.newsfirex.com/safari140/ ), which I love, to Chrome in some fashion.

I actually love these types of apps. Especially when they are all wrapped in a single file which usually makes the download/use/delete cycle nice. Also the single purpose websites that I can upload data to and perform some trivial calculati
