This looks to be damn cool. Looking at the docs[1][2] it's now possible to create a Spotify remote control (e.g. control PC from a phone) using the native client. Thinking about it, it's probably also possible to sync two Spotify players on

I guess you're in the US, Canada or Brazil, because Rdio isn't available anywhere else. But Spotify is, and is doing well.

Agree with all of these points, especially the condensed-at-first display. I would also like it if the search box was in the fixed header, so I don't have to scroll back to the top to re-search. Otherwise nice tool!

I really liked #4, the juxtaposition of the relaxing site and "vulgar" cursing made me laugh out loud, and feel more relaxed.

One thing that hasn't been mentioned yet is the quality of the video. The length, dynamism and content were all perfect! Nice one.

I've never used Gowalla, but I've seen a lot of complaints on Twitter that peoples' "stuff" has disappeared. What's happened there?

It would be really good to get some Selenium tests written up for them as well so that we know they all, and all future ones, behave the same. I might do this if I get a bit of spare time.

For the Hacker_News article there seems to be a peak every Tuesday in July (and to some extent May). I wonder why?

So the differences between this and Javascript that I can see are: * ^ replacing function * default values for arguments, ^(x: 4){...} * print instead of console.log * array slicing x[1:3], x[:-2] * embedded HTML, div

Looks very interesting, it would be great if you could put a video of the app in action on that page. I don't have a Mac so I can't try it out myself.

After seeing the demo I thought this was being done in canvas, but no, it's actually using css transforms applied to DOM elements. SVG is far more suited to this task. Also despite it's vector look, all of the lines are in fact pngs http:/

Yep, before I would even consider paying I want to see the docs for the command line tool, and at least a few screenshots of the web interface! I does look good from what info is available though.

There have been several attempts at solving this, including one by Microsoft[1] which involves putting a camera on either side of the screen and synthesizing a new image that allows eye contact. [1] http://research.microsoft.com/apps/pubs/

Well the author says in the conclusion that they don't think that they're particularly readable, but from an artistic point of view they're definitely more interesting. Even if it isn't a success, I would like to encourage this kind of expe

This isn't a particularly good example as you're doing all the work adding up the word counts in your reduce function. A better example would count the occurrences of the words in each line in the map, and then add up the totals in reduce.

I really like this idea, and have been meaning to code up something similar for a while. A few points: * I would like to set lengths of time shorter than 15 mins. * If you visit a URL like http://timeslot.me/agendas/#day/2011-4-29 withou
