Pretty cool. I showed it to my daughter and she created a chic stylist game with it after playing around with a few of the ones in the app. You should showcase some girl-focused content as well as they make up a meaningful percent of gamers.

Create a script for a product demo or tutorial for your app using an extension. The script is used to generate your product content in multiple formats (narrated video, interactive demo, looping animation, and in-app guide). Whenever your product changes, just update the script and regenerate everything. No manual re-recording of video, syncing of audio, or any other post-production steps.
Founder of Screenleap here.
At Screenleap, we’ve been providing quick-and-easy screen sharing and online meetings since we launched as a Show HN on Hacker News 10 years ago! https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3539792
Today we’re excited to share what we’ve been building:
Screenleap for Websites allows you to easily add our installation-free screen sharing and online meetings functionality to your website by adding a snippet of code. To configure your integration, you simply toggle some settings on the Screenleap site - no programming is required. It’s like adding a chat widget to your website, but instead of live chat, you get Google Meet-like functionality integrated right into your website.
Once you have added the code snippet and configured your integration, you can enable all sorts of new interactions with your users directly from your website. For example, you can 1) provide your customers with the ability to jump into richer real-time support experiences with screen sharing, live video, audio, and chat, 2) allow your users to video chat with each other live, 3) funnel website prospects into live sales demos and conversations and automatically redirect them to a lead-generation form afterwards, 4) host online classes directly from your own website, and more.
You can try out a demo integration here: https://www.screenleap.com/integration/demo
The demo integration requires you to manually send a link to the users you want to interact with, but if you sign up for your own integration, you’ll also have the option to 1) have all the users at a specific URL automatically join your session or 2) select which users you want to join your session.
Besides not having to keep up with breaking changes in Gmail, another really nice benefit of using InboxSDK is that you don't have to keep updating your extension to make sure that it plays nice with other extensions. This was an unexpected and on-going source of development work for us previously.
Looking forward to the Google Calendar integration :)
Some feedback:
* On the browse page, you should remove the ninja after the person's expertise. It makes it easier for the expertise to stand out when scanning the experts.
* It wasn't immediately obvious to me that the green circle meant that the ninja was available now--maybe something more obvious if you want people to start a session in an ad hoc fashion vs scheduling a future session.
* It might be useful to show the people an onboarding page with the type of help you could get from these ninjas.
The average Internet user spends 2.5 hours per day on email and most Screenleap users send links as their primary means of notifying viewers. We believe the Gmail browser extension makes it even more convenient to share your screen because we can auto-populate your emails or chat conversations with the share link so you don't have to copy-and-paste it yourself.
We wanted to soft launch something now to start getting feedback about the product. We'll be doing a formal launch in the next couple of weeks and will have a lot more detail to share about us and the company then.
2) We are currently not P2P but that is one direction that we are considering for a future complementary product. We have done some calculations and believe that it is possible to make service economically viable (even with free basic usage) but it remains to be seen if we are right.
3) Unfortunately, it is not possible to implement a sharing application purely in Flash because it does not provide the necessary calls as far as we know. Our goal is to remove the pain from viewing so an iPhone/iPad/Android version would fit in with our goals.
4) Thanks for the pointer.
Thanks for all the feedback!
