CSS Pivot - From idea to 20k hits in 7 days

I like these posts a few times a year, but do we really need a post like this every couple days? We get it, articles that make the front page of HN get some page views. How is this any different than the other twenty virtually identical posts that have been on the front page in the last month?

Is there a way to specify the "license" for the pivot code? This might be handy--sites could take free improvements if they want--if a devoted user wanted to improve a site they dearly loved.

Additionally, you could let people sell pivots right on the site. I'm sure you're thinking of these things, though.

Man, well done. Very well done.

Just a quick suggestion: I think having "Discover Pivots" on a separate Reddit- or HN-style ranking page might be better than having a bunch of popup windows.

I'm liking the potential of these ideas:

"extending the use-szenarious (eg inviting friends to share pivots for your own website), showing a tree of pivots with their forks and ancestors"

It would be really useful to see a history of versions and easily toggle between them.

what did you do to in terms of marketing to get to 20k users? I think the site is good.

Very very well done. I'd be interested in hearing more about this. Best of luck to you!

This is an interesting project, but how do you intend to monetize this traffic? I do not see any ads, do you intend to have payed accounts?

you should make browser extensions, so user can save their customized css then used as user style sheet on their browser and can share with friends.
