djug··on Show HN: BlackFriday Deals for Developers
Yesterday I was looking for good BlackFriday deals for developers (i.e: courses, ebooks, dev tools,…) I asked on twitter, and called some friends but I didn’t get what I was looking for. And then a friend of mine asked me to send him any good deals I’d find.

So I thought maybe instead of tweeting about the deals I find and share them just with this one friend, it would be much better to build a small web app to list all these good deals, and allow other people to collaborate and add the deals they come across.

So I spent a few hours last night and I built… wait for it… BlackFridayDealsForDevelopers.com

I hope you’ll find this useful

djug··on Show HN: FreakonomicsBooks – List of All books discussed in Freakonomics podcast
I am a big fan of freakonomics podcast, I think it is the only podcast that I have listened to all of its episodes (more than 300).

what I like more about freekonomics is the quality of the great books they usually discuss in their podcasts, they do even interview their authors sometimes.

Since I’m always seeking new good books to read, I’ve gone ahead and collected all of their books in one easy to use website, not only to fill my own need, but for anyone interested in this great list.

If you and me are in the same club, feel free visit and share

djug··on Show HN: Botmarker, a bot that helps you bookmark tweets you like
Have you ever wanted to “bookmark” a tweet but ing it didn’t seem appropriate? Or you didn’t want your followers to know that you “liked” this or that tweet?

Or did you a tweet, but when you got back to it after few hours (or few days) you couldn't find it, either because it was deleted, or because you ed so many tweets that it became difficult to find what you are looking for?

botmarker solves all these problems (and many more).

botmarker is a bot that helps you bookmark tweets you like and organize them into categories (#tags) without revealing what you are interested in to your followers (or stalkers :) ). botmarker also keeps a copy of tweets you bookmarked even if they get deleted.

botmarker is NOT a “standalone” app (no need to install any additional apps), but rather it is more like an add-on to twitter, and you can use it “inside” your favorite twitter client. All what you need to do to bookmark a tweet is to DM it to @botmarker. You can add hashtags to you DMs to organize them by categories.

We are opening our public beta today, and we would love to get your feedback about our app.
