My Weekend Project, leftright.me▲8
From inception Thursday night to near-feature-complete on Sunday morning, I consider it one of my better weekend hacking projects. http://leftright.me/ I built it with node and Redis which was particularly fun. Redis truly is the AK-47 of databases. This project has deeply engrained my longtime hate of Internet Explorer. Everything should be kosher in Chrome and FF but I had to make some compromises for IE. I sent the link to a few friends and the userbase grew from there. It's not much but it's definitely something for having it live for a day. I'm really looking forward to any constructive…
