On a somewhat unrelated note, some people believe this is what the founder of Bitcoin did. > Both his forum posts and his comments in the bitcoin source code used such Brit spellings as optimise and colour.[1] 1: http://www.wi

An app that does exactly this was just built at YC Hacks: http://ychacks.challengepost.com/submissions/25803-oneride

Calca, too. The awk script should do if you want something simpler, but I'd recommend either Soulver or Calca for their extra features.

Why do you think this is useless?

It's a stylistic choice.

I like the idea of using a MIDI trigger pad for things like keyboard shortcuts or text snippets. I'm sure you could make something similar on the cheap with an arduino.

The form should limit the number of digits allowed in the "I want to spend" field. Right now, it says I'll receive more bitcoins than the total possible mined coins cap (21 million). http://i.imgur.com/pCUTqOz

No you're right. Coinbase does payment processing and hosted wallets. Users can buy or sell bitcoins to Coinbase, but it's not an exchange in the sense that any two users can trade USD/BTC with each other.

I'm curious what tools the author doesn't consider obscure.

I guess this means it'll be browser based, but the screenshots make it look like a native app. Hmm.

I wonder how prominent the bars have to be for this effect to still work. Can they be translucent or a color other than white?

I got invited about a month ago. I think I'll try out ghost now instead.

I have to agree. There's too much of the "free, but we sell your information to advertisers" model going around these days.

I don't think fashion would work well in this context. Image-based sites like pinterest or we heart it work better for it. Sports is OP's best bet.

I should clarify that I agree it looked great and was pretty neat. But like Chris said, it was choppy. It took a few too many tries to get it to scroll down from the top of the page. Didn't mean to be a cynic!

I'm never on Facebook anymore, but I'm not too keen on switching to Google+ either. I want an ADN for Facebook.

Anyone know if Time Warner Cable does this?

Facebook is basically dead and buried with kids my age too, at least in my area. It's really only used for messaging and event planning now. Most teens are on Twitter and Snapchat. Although not as much as there used to be, there are st
