The hints on the bottom bar are a nice touch. I kept refreshing the page to see them all. Also found out about the keyboard shortcuts that way! (Hint: Press ?)

Same here! Except instead of blowing up the page, you shoot at links to follow them. Also, fog that is revealed as you move around, minimap, etc. Maybe this can spark some more ideas? http://tanksurfing.appspot.com/

This is a rails gem, so you get all the benefits of integration with the web framework. As far as I know, GWO does A/B testing between hardcoded URLs, so the logic is then split between GWO (to redirect to the correct page) and your app (to

Agree. Tweetdeck does this.

Yep. We had an awesome designer working with our team. He mocked all the pages up after discussing our ideas, then cut then up perfectly for html/css (button sprites, background images, etc). Wouldn't have been nearly as good without him.

I've played with JamLegend before. It's really well done, and this feature seems to be one that is the natural next step for what people want from a music-oriented game. Nice work!

Thanks! Apture is actually really powerful and adds a lot to content (even automatically). I played with it at http://www.apture.com/create/ before implementing it into Kiwis.

Just tried out doubleblind.at. It's neat! I've also seen quizzes that work under this principle where you attempt to guess what picture/status update is associated with a choice of 4 friends. I like your thumbs up/thumbs down approach and t

This was really fun. I think the time constraint of 1 day allows you to focus on what really matters and how you can be really efficient with productivity. Constraints are interesting. Twitter = 140 characters, One Day App = 24 hours. What

Poster here. This "unimpressive feature" is at the heart of YC backed Posterous. Thought it would be interesting to see the comparison. And if you want to talk about site guidelines, your comment is against them: "Please don't submit comme

For your website you'll want to pick something that users will be able to display and have installed by default. HN primarily uses Verdana. Google primarily uses Arial. 37signals uses a combo of Helvetica (generic sans-serif if not present)

Looks cool, but while we're on the subject - what makes this better than the established players like Campfire ( http://campfirenow.com/ )?

Great post. I think you highlight the real value of the HN community. High quality discussion makes listening for ideas easier as there is more signal with less noise to wade through. There are few other places on the web where you can list

I assume you need access to iPhone hardware features (microphone, etc). Unfortunately, you can't do that through mobilesafari. Check out the iPhone SDK for more info: http://developer.apple.com/iphone/

Wow, I'm glad not everyone shares your mindset. CSS grids aren't that difficult, but I find http://960.gs/ really useful. Having a nice, packaged example of best practices comes in handy. If this saves me 5 minutes each time I want to cre
