We're still working on the app home page. I'll try and update the site to reflect the things people have mentioned in this thread.

Alas, marketing and copywriting aren't my strong points.

Also quick link to free signup: https://signup.purifyapp.com

Disclaimer: This a project between myself and MrMatt

Cheers, I'll have a read

I did exactly the same thing.

There are links to each Githubbers profile on the blog ( in the right hand column):

Why did you leave the equipment in the car?

+1 for the use of the word "Gusher"

Is it just me that read that as Saver Pig Geeks?

Wake at about 5/6. Work on sites/startup until about 8. Shower, dress, teeth. Set off walking to job at about 8:30 Arrive for 8 hours of dull boring work at about 9.

Clickable link: http://tunes.am

Awesome. Cheers.

I've noticed that recently as well

I generally have a quick read through the code of plugins on Github before I used them.

I generally have one terminal open with htop as well. It's awesome for finding out which of your processes are battering your system

I taught myself to program when I was twelve by doing PHP. Although I wouldn't touch it with a barge pole these days it's certainly easy to learn.

Having said that I'd probably get her a HTML/CSS book.

I've not noticed any slow down at all.

I'm currently working on a bug tracker (http://purifyapp.com). I can send you a beta invite if you're interested? Also open to anyone else who fancies trying it out.

My bad. The pdf was linked to from a different article. I've upvoted your post with the original article.

Agreed. Changed.

+1 for less. I find it to be a lot nicer to use than SASS.

When you're loading in ajax content, it loads very slowly. I clicked the sign-up button and it took about a second to load.

The bookmark tools slide down animation is incredibly jerky is safari.

Also the front page doesn't tell me enough to get me excited about your product. How does it differ from Reddit/Delicious? What makes it special? Why should I sign up?

+1 for RVM. Stupidly easy to use.

I've been using MongoDB to rewrite the activity feed on one of my apps. I wouldn't use it for everything though (not just yet anyway).

Having said that, the guys behind Harmony (http://get.harmonyapp.com/) use MongoDB for everything, as far as I know: http://railstips.org/blog/archives/2009/12/18/why-i-think-mo...

Looks odd when viewed on a large screen.

I'd personal make it 100% width or at least center it.

Out of curiosity, how do you plan on monetising this?

I tend to use this image (NSFW): http://files.myopera.com/coxy/albums/106123/trex-boner.jpg

I'll make sure I post something once I get round to launching :)

+1 for Spreedly. I'm going to be using it along with Paypal Payments Pro UK. Then later down the line I plan to swap out Paypal with someone more reliable, eg. Sagepay.

It's based on Drupal.

Nice to see the UK being innovative. sigh
