Pretty awesome that Facebook could pull this off so quickly. I literally said that exact line to Lars (who lead the search team) during our meetings last year... I can't believe he reused verbatim in the video: "Facebook is for the all the

Agreed. What's odd is how the Politify founder (who applied to YC as WellFrankly) posted the same posting and image at exactly the same time as the fake account that he used my name for (which he is now denying.) This is the same Politify

This is your fake noob account, sharing your same image that you posted from your "wellfrankly" HN account. Please stop adding unnecessary noise to HN. Thank you. http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4856708

This is the founder of WellFrankly (formerly Politify), who went so far as to impersonate me and make fake accounts: http://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=patriley

This is actually been posted by the founder of Politify. He's impersonating me, Patrick Riley. Grow up, dude. Impersonation in the state of California is illegal.

Oharo, I'm curious why your only comments on HN are two slanders against Ark, on exactly the same day you first registered on HN?

? It's true that there is a low quality dump of FB data from years ago, but it's totally useless in terms of our faceted search and we never use these kinds of sources.

I'm the founder of Ark that that's totally false.

Glympse was founded by dinosaurs.. retired Microsoft guys. I'd put my money on three talented teens with a better UX in their first version every day of the week. Keep on shipping, Moby team!

Yes, very cool, except as far as it seems, it does not enable moving tracking (driving) and is instead stagnant like others. Also, no shortened link.

I said pretend you were driving.

by priley 14y ago
Agreed, but way easier and done without >$10M of funding like Glympse. Try it. Just like how Instagram stripped down other apps and made a better experience, I think the short mo.by links make sharing location easier.

Great suggestion! This is why the HN community is so valuable for young developers like these guys.

Great point. I can how it may evolve there.

Not sure why it was changed. This app was coded by Berkeley freshman as their first app in honor of a professor that passed away this year who wanted this app when getting picked up by others to visit the hospital often. You can read it in

Try using FMF and share with me (Android user) and the HN audience here with a link your location for an hour. I'm also hoping these kids come out with Android soon. Moby guys.. can you promise the HN audience an Android version soon?

And there were photosharing apps with filters before Instagram. Sometimes solid UX, strong brand, and focusing on what users want can mean the difference. I think these kids are on the right track.

Ok, pretend you are picking me up. Share with me a link where you are right now... even if you are driving.

by priley 14y ago
As far as I gather, these kids have been doing it as a hobby because other apps for quickly sharing a real-time location suck. The short link makes it ideal for sharing via SMS/Twitter, etc. But great point, they should have a quick demo v

Great point. The short-link makes it sort of like Bit.ly for location and easily shared in SMS, Tweets, etc. I also like the temporal aspect that you can control how long you will be sharing the link (ex: I pick someone up at the airport, s

Hmm.. I think Phil was (rightfully) being sarcastic about the critizism over a short 4-letter domain. Airbnb was originally Airbedandbreakfast.com. Great launch guys! I'll certainly use it for my summer cabin.
