Hacker News Reader

this is cool, thanks for sharing. is there a way to go to the original post on hacker news? i like to see the context around comments but i can't find that link. it only links to the "original post" on the yoomter site, which is misleading since that's not the original post.

View on HN

The posts on the site are the original posts. To seed the site so it wouldn't look like a wasteland, I emailed a few high value HN posters who had email addresses shown on their HN profiles and begged them to post a tip.

A few of them graciously obliged, and some of those probably told a colleague/acquaintance to post a tip as well.

It's why I love HN, there's more of a sense of community here.

oh i see. i was thinking that you found comments on hacker news and put them there. in which case, i'd want to go to the hacker news comment.
