   I would love more than anything for you to cite the claim that they've taken a huge hit in polling in their districts/states. I looked around, can't find one - but if you have one I would greatly appreciate. I do not think th

   My argument is that it's shifting, and if this keeps up, it's going to continue to shift. And I think there's no sign that, unless we change our attitude toward government, that's its not.

   The sequester resulted in tons of furloughs, making this the second or third time in the last 3 months for many people, with many more fights ahead. I have a lot of freaked out friends, this is a very real thing.

   Hey actually emailed me to correct me, which was kind to avoid me the embarrassment, but I try to leave my shame up to force me to REALLY learn.

   There's a UX thing that is really nice right now that is limiting the number of characters, it does a button animation when and drops the keyboard when you're done filling out the contact. I'd like to find a way to keep it, b

    I really don't mind the feedback. If you don't get the use-case, you don't get the use case. No offense taken.

    OH hey I did absolutely not think of that. International numbers are 11 digits is that right? Or what is it?

    Did this just get UN-flagged? It's back on the front page now. Anyone ever see this happen before? That's pretty weird in my experience.

    Yeah I agree that's a problem.

    You add contacts to your phone and it adds them based on where you met them and when you met them. You can also send a really easy text back to them with your information auto-populated. Then, if you remember where or when you met somebody,

    I'm not sure I follow - what information would the wifi signals nearby where you met them give you? Or would it be that hopefully they have their phone again when you see them, and it will know who they are that way?

    Thanks for the feedback! Pneumonic devices are really helpful when you remember to use them, but I think one of the core tenants of modern computing is the ability to more efficiently offload tasks. If I and everyone I know has gone our ent

    Hey thanks! I'm sure a lot of people will have the same initial reaction - it's a very simple app that does, what I thin are, some very powerful things.

    Photos were a little to high-input for me to implement in the first version - wanted to give people something stupid simple, but finding a way to get photos in there without a lot of effort by the user (taking a picture of someone you just

    Is there ever! I used Reflector to mirror onto my screen, Quicktime to screen record my laptop, then MPEG Streamclip to crop it, then an online converter to convert to OGV for Firefox!

    Evernote Hello was my inspiration for this actually! I really, really disliked it very, very much and I'm a big Evernote fan. It needs to be simpler, IMO - I want to drive user input toward 0 if I can, let the app do the work. Thanks f

    Tommy - creator here. I'd love any ideas about how the app can help you exchange and remember names better - but to start, it indexes by Time and by Location, so you if you remember where and/or when you met somebody, this can hel

    On Reddit, and I think on 4Chan too, they consider(ed) looking at "new" every now and then part of your duty. The only time I remember to do it is when I or someone I know is submitting something and I want to see how it's do
