This looks pretty awesome. Could it be used for importing email contacts from gmail/yahoo/live etc.?

One possible use case is "live editing" of an object. Imagine a form that lets you build an HTML button from various properties: text, color, font, background, border-radius etc.

Using way.js the button can be updated immediately whenever you change one of its properties, without waiting for a server response.

And saving the data to localstorage is very useful when the user is spending a long time filling the form and then accidentally closes the browser / clicks BACK / etc. It's a bit like autosaving a draft version of the form.

What does Nginx do if the log message is longer than the 1KB limit imposed by the syslog protocol?

Almost garbage? This is the OCR result for the 2nd paragraph. Almost perfect, although the last word in each line gets joined to the first one in the next line:

"The fundamental problem of communication is that of reproducing atone point either exactly or approximately a message selected at anotherpoint. Frequently the messages have meamlng; that is they refer to or arecorrelated according to some system with certain physical or conceptualentities. These semantic aspects of communication are irrelevant to theengineering problem. The significant aspect is that the actual message isone selected from a set of possible messages. The system must be designedto operate for each possible selection, not just the one which will actuallybe chosen since this is unknown at the time of design."

My Eyes! The goggles do nothing!

Ho hum. Another chat app.

It's a clever idea, but not a malware attack - just a way to hide what the attack does and make it more difficult to detect. It still needs some javascript code to extract the malicious payload from the image.

Extremely well done!

Yet another startup with no viable business model shutting down after spending the investors' money. I simply don't understand how companies get funded when they have no real way of turning a profit.

I think you're missing a "currency" field in the request, particularly since you support both AUD and USD.

I really wish there was something like this that worked globally, other than PayPal.

Replace it with "and"

It does look useful, but that's a weird choice for a name...

How is it different than knockout? It looks very similar from what I can tell.

I wish I could upvote this more than once.

That's pretty brilliant, well done.

OMG. Just when you think you've heard the worst (SOPA?).

The discussion going on about whether it's a criminal or civil offense is really pointless. The main thing is that a country can simply decide one morning that it's illegal to access websites from other countries. Thinking about this as a possible reality makes me feel physically ill. Not to mention how stupid this idea is in the first place: many modern professions rely heavily on international websites for doing their jobs. Think about academic researchers, importers/exporters, even school teachers...

Horrible, just horrible.

The text in the black area of your homepage is ridiculously dark. Everything looks "disabled", including the top navigation bar.

First world problems, huh?

I, for one, think that your idea is great. Good luck!

Suddenly, an idea - what if you let charities request to be included in your service? Once a charity is on-board, they have a great incentive to tell people about you, link to you and so on.

The page links to a Wikipedia entry that contradicts some of its claims.

According to Wikipedia: "As it can be seen in the project's documentation, INDECT does not involve mobile phone tracking or call interception. The rumors about testing INDECT during 2012 UEFA European Football Championship also turned out to be false."

Me too! But my wife could have told you that.

Great idea, love it!

Pretty sure they made this page specifically to get to HN front page. Userlook was posted to HN a month ago, then 3 weeks ago, then 3 days ago... The previous attempts were more straightforward but not very successful.

Nice idea, I like it. It kinda "democratizes" the cheat-sheet generation industry (as much as such an industry exists).

One thing that you should fix is the PDF download. When downloading a cheatsheet the filename looks like someGibberish.pdf.part and Windows doesn't know what to do with it. Should be: HumanReadableCheatsheetTitle.pdf instead.

Don't assume that you cannot charge more than the competition. If your service is better / faster / higher quality / more personal and so on, customers will be willing to pay a premium. Perhaps not all of them, but some.

You can always quote a higher initial price, and if the potential customer makes it clear that it is more than he's willing to pay, you give him a "new customer discount". Then, once he knows how great your service is, he might become a return customer and then pay the full price.

Cute, I like it.

One thought: although the text area is cool for us geeks, what value does it add for the typical user over a more structured data entry approach? I think the text area leaves too many ways for the user to make mistakes.
