It is using a technology platform. Any artist who goes out of their way to capitalize on what we developers build will be a star on HN,especially if they cut the middle man and show a commitment to platforms we associate with openness or co

Good idea, but hard to figure out when I first landed on the page. Also, that speed register thing that's supposed to work with Facebook, I cant figure out how to do it. It is not implemented yet? Otherwise great work. Tell your girlfriend
