Yep - I'd also love to see this
husky··on Ask HN: Do you have a side project you want to sell?
That's a fascinating insight Alex. Some businesses are just not ready to be helped...
husky··on Our 1 week side project is a Best New App on the Mac Appstore - what now?
Yes we have been putting this together - is a really good idea to see if anyone cares about online features..
husky··on Our 1 week side project is a Best New App on the Mac Appstore - what now?
Yes it's definitely one we are looking at - would make a lot of sense I think
husky··on Our 1 week side project is a Best New App on the Mac Appstore - what now?
Yep - simplicity is compelling to the user and it makes an app easy to market - kind of a win/win situation
husky··on Our 1 week side project is a Best New App on the Mac Appstore - what now?
No - we were lucky and just got featured - that's kind of why I know it's a chance I don't know if I'll get again and want advice to make the most of it.

Part of the fun and beauty of it though I think is that you can't stop - you are on a rolling train therefore under pressure to get it right in one take = it's kind of exciting that way ;-)
husky··on Our 1 week side project is a Best New App on the Mac Appstore - what now?
Yep totally agree with this - it's a shame... One day webrtc with save us...
husky··on Our 1 week side project is a Best New App on the Mac Appstore - what now?
yeah 1.1 has now gone live - we have altered this - we will look at the licence as well
husky··on Our 1 week side project is a Best New App on the Mac Appstore - what now?
Cause people can upload Videos of whatever -it's a standard app store thing
husky··on Our 1 week side project is a Best New App on the Mac Appstore - what now?
Good idea - per seat licence or just a company wide licence?
husky··on Our 1 week side project is a Best New App on the Mac Appstore - what now?
Some nice ideas here thanks
husky··on Our 1 week side project is a Best New App on the Mac Appstore - what now?
The other ideas are close to what we are thinking - don't worry watermark is not going to be introduced

How do we captitalize on this - we are getting 1500 downloads a day as a free app - what's the best way forwards - anyone with experience?
husky··on Forge - Static hosting made simple
Sure - developers can access services that are cheaper than this. Outside of HN developers are a minority though and tools like Dropbox took a tech that was available to techies and brought it to the masses.

Some pointless comments here kicking a person while they are (or their server is) down - I'll never understand that mentality

Congratulations on the launch

husky··on Show HN: a new tool for front end dev
More info will be coming soon - however if you do sign up you get some links to more information ;-)
husky··on Show HN: Mixture + Dropbox + Mac + Windows = Fun
Neil's not on a great connection so Dropbox was a bit slow to update
husky··on Why the Raspberry Pi will save the UK
This is a custom theme called: five3 Personally I really like it too
husky··on Why the Raspberry Pi will save the UK
I just love the fact that the Raspberry Pi isn't about money at this stage - it's a philanthropic initiative designed to help the world progress. Ultimately it gives computer access to far more people who will benefit economically in the long run
husky··on Why the Raspberry Pi will save the UK
Great comment - such experimentation is what creates the best tech and giving kids the ability to try ideas in their head is invaluable
husky··on Why the Raspberry Pi will save the UK
Thanks - I did that quick
husky··on Why the Raspberry Pi will save the UK
Sorry - but I just used a pre-built theme - because if I didn't do that then I would never get time to actually write any blog posts as my own site takes a very low priority for coding time! Saying that I do like this theme and think the dev did a good job. I have removed that overflow hidden on the body - thanks for the suggestion - so let's hope it's readable now
husky··on Why the Raspberry Pi will save the UK
Yes - I read your work in January and it invaded my consciousness. Sorry if I have regurgitated anything but this message needs to be spread!

You guys are funny ;-)

I guess what I'm trying to say is that we couldn't fully implement this on mobile due to keyboard restrictions..

Yeah it's a reference to this wonderful song ;-)

husky··on Ask HN: what visa do most European's use for Y Combinator?
I guess 'training' could apply: Participating in a training program that is not designed primarily to provide employment. Will receive no payment or income from a U.S. based company/entity, other than an expense allowance or expense reimbursement related to traveler’s stay.
husky··on Ask HN: what visa do most European's use for Y Combinator?
Quote - For example, if the purpose for your planned travel is to consult with business associates, travel for a scientific, educational, professional or business convention, or conference on specific dates, settle an estate, or negotiate a contract, then a business visitor visa (B-1) would be the appropriate type of visa for your travel

Does that really apply to someone working every day in an office - even if they don't earn a salary
