I end up with thousands of bookmarks that I never revisit even though I know I saved them for a reason. Even if they're organized by the window, I don't have any context as to what I was thinking when I saved it (was I interested in the entire site, or just a piece?). After a certain point bookmarks and OneTab are just too noisey to have any value.
It sounds like you have a nice thing going, there's no need to jump into the deep end if you don't have the ambitions to.
A lot of VCs talk about raising money as 'the big leagues', and the takeaway from that is: success is judged as performance against expected returns. Perform or get out.
If this doesn't sound like what you want, then don't take VC $. If you're ambitious and it sounds like an interesting challenge then maybe it's something to consider!
I had this realization that most of my tab sprees came from research I was doing into specific topics—stuff that was kind of like a background job I wanted to pause on and pick up later. So I'm building a browser specifically for that.
Your tabs are organized by project, treated like a todo list, and can get cut up into just the useful pieces and glued together into a kind of summary of your progress on looking into that topic so far.
We’re looking for people who have tried all the tools and want to get in on the ground floor. Excited to hear your feedback on our approach!
I would love to talk to you if your open to sharing some of the things you learned on your project! If so reach out to george [at] stilllife [dot] studio
We've used amazon a lot for ordering seltzer in our offices, and it doesn't have the selection (1/10th of ours). There's also a pain about managing delivery times. Amazon is optimizing for 'real-time' delivery, but what I care about is not having to think about my seltzer and just have it be taken care of. Amazon fresh experience is _not_ this. We're looking to remove as much mental overhead as possible, by simply always having your flavors, having predictable delivery, and making getting what you a delightful experience.
Would love to hear feedback or any questions (especially if you're in Boston)!
We have built our first cohort of subscribers and are running a beta with them and hope some of you want to be part of the seltzer club.
Registration is useful for future features (like having an index of all your videos for example if you wanted to delete some of them)
Videos are supposed to get uploaded before hitting done to increase performance, but if it's crashing I'm not sure they uploaded succesfully.
We built front end using React Native (ejected from Expo), backend API using Rails (as that's our most comfortable stack). The video encoding processing is handled by Amazon Elastic Transcoder, hosting the videos on s3.
There's a sneaky amount of transcoding involved in the simple app, but it's all cheap at a few dollars a month so far with some use.
We're not using a CDN atm but are looking at using cloudfront. Right now it's only on Apple phones, but since we build the front end in React Native building for Android is on the roadmap if there's customer demand!
I would love any feedback or ideas that you guys have.
We're building a subscription box that shares great specialty products (some you may have heard of and wanted to try and others may be new) to your door.
I'm really interested in bringing secret knowledge out of hidden networks and democratizing it, and this is a stab at that in the food industry. We're working with some great chefs in Boston to select the ingredients and share how they use them in their home and work kitchens.
If you're interested about hearing more when we launch please sign up or drop a note here and would love to hear any feedback!
The photo on the site is from the first round of products we're testing out and we're really excited about it.

It turns your new tab page into an overview of all your open windows and tabs that's searchable and organizable. It lets you close tabs, save tabs, and drag and drop tabs between open windows (and also saved windows).
It's very, very alpha and still has some bugs—but I'm working real hard on it.
I actually just rewrote it in react and am adding a bunch more features, but I thought I'd show it to the world now to see if anyone else is looking for something similar. He's now running with no more than 3 open windows at a time, with an average of 20-40 tabs total.
Questions and feedback are greatly appreciated :)

Pro tip: add it to the triple home button click (Settings>General>Accessibility>Accessibility Shortcut (all the way at the bottom)>Select 'Color Filters') for easy switching for color/grayscale.
