eeek, fun stuff. Working now.

dyogenezon Ask HN: Are you a single founder ?

1) 6 months

2) Never applied, probably not the right idea/goals for it. Plus don't live in CA.

3) No VC, but who knows what the future holds. Just a for-fun project scratching my own itch at this point.

dyogenezon Ask HN: What are the best technologies you've worked with this year?

XMPP and Bosh with Strophe - hit a XMPP server with Javascript instead of a web server. Realtime Javascript Push on an established base (XMPP). Real cool stuff, just need something to use it on.

Sinatra - Very fast/easy ruby framework. (Similar to Cherry.py in the Python world).

Jquery - Can't imagine using any other framework after a year working with this.

Facebook Connect - Much more robust than I thought possible due to things like FQL and FBML.

Heroku - Super simple ruby hosting
