For those desiring invites – email kyle at forrst.com with the subject "HN invite" and I'll hook you up.

I love Forrst, but I wish my public posts could be seen anyone even if they don't have an account.

I'm pretty sure checking the "Public" checkbox makes them visible to the public. You just need to give them the link.

Or did you mean comments on public posts?

Thank you, and they can — like stevelosh says, there is a checkbox when you add or edit any post that allows anyone who knows the URL to see it (sans comments, though).

Can I have an invite? :)

Thanks for the clarification, I should have been a little more specific.

I meant to say that I wish there was a way to get a listing of all my public posts without having to log in. Kind of like going to someone's Twitter profile if you aren't logged in.

Just a very minor nitpick, it seems like you have a great community so far which far more valuable than features that can easily be added, keep up the good work!

Ah yes, makes sense. Seems that a public profile of sorts is pretty highly requested. Something I'm definitely thinking about how to do well. Happy to hear that about the community :)

Can someone send me an invitation?

I haven't figured out how to send invites, but after submitting the waitlist form, Kyle sent me an invite within a reasonable amount of time. Give it a try.

yes me too please.
