A few days ago, I responded to a comment by bloggergirl offering to read anyone's web copy and help. I shot off an email hoping for a paragraph or two of feedback on my startup's copy. Instead I received a professional, detailed deck of tons of invaluable well thought out feedback. It must have taken her an entire afternoon. Here's a link to it: http://www.slideshare.net/shereefb/recommendations-for-bettermeans To top it off, this isn't someone with a lot of free time on her hands, she's only days away from launching her own startup (page99test) This community blows my mind!

Here's the website: http://markup.io/ We created MarkUp at Medium to help make the QA process better for sites we're working on. Grab the MarkUp bookmarklet, go to some page in your browser, then click it to draw on the page. Publish to make a link you can share. We've tried similar tools like BounceApp, Notable, and Skitch. Everything else we found is screenshot-based or takes us out of the browser. We wanted something that felt quicker than screenshots and more integrated with the browsing experience. Instead of taking a screenshot, MarkUp snapshots the DOM in the current page, strips the…

I was inspired by Feross Aboukhadijeh's instant search for YouTube, so I took the latest Etsy API and built an instant search for them. I'd love it if you'd try it out and let me know what you think. It is at http://www.glancely.com/ I really hope it doesn't need an explanation, but start typing what you're looking for. I used tags on the listings (among other things) to fuel my suggestions. Click a color to filter on those listings, click to sort on price. Click again to deselect. I've tested on the latest Firefox, Chrome and IE on Windows and Safari on an iPad. You will need JavaScript to…

I created a SMS based chat application that connects two people to chat (aka SMS roulette). I've opened up some invites for HN. Signup with your hacker news handle with (hn) so that you know when you are chatting with another HN'er. http://textslide.com/hn Feedback is always welcome.

Hey HN, My co-founders and I have been working on a project for the last month or so, and we'd like to get your input on it. We wanted to hear your thoughts on what we're doing - so check out our landing page, and let us know what you think/understand. Does it sounds like something you guys would want to use? http://www.thesharedweb.com/alpha/intro We'll tell you guys more about exactly what we're doing as the conversation evolves, but we just wanted to see what the initial reaction is, and what you understand (i.e. are we describing it in a way that makes sense). Really excited to hear your…

http://www.dashler.com/toolbar/ Dashler Toolbar is a bookmarklet that opens up a toolbar of shortcuts to various webpages, and allows for super easy bookmarking. You can open the toolbar, highlight content, then open up a floating window of the results on any of (currently) dozens of websites, like Wikipedia, IMDb, various dictionaries, translate, etc. Some shortcuts use the URL or Domain of the page you are at. For example, you can jump to Quantcast/Alexa results for the page you're viewing, shorten the URL, or search within the site with Google and ilk. [Advanced: For shortcuts that use a…

It's at http://finkin.com. The goal is to allow a developer to sign up in seconds, and within minutes begin querying data. It runs under https and stores no access information. From http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1431583, I realized that all those types of sites are not tailored to developers like the other simple APIs around the web are (i.e. flickr). I made mine as simple as I thought possible. From http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1676458, I realized that eventually it should be a scalable model where you pay pennies per the # of requests you make. Right now it supports many…

Still in early development, but I made an HN iGoogle gadget (see http://www.google.com/ig/directory?hl=en&url=hosting.gmodules.com/ig/gadgets/file/109361710563279833553/iHN.xml ) and wanted to get your feedback on: 1) How many people use iGoogle 2) What they use it for (news, social, etc.) 3) If an HN gadget is useful to you, what would you like to see added to the gadget I created Thanks!

http://profilepin.com I made this site during my free time over the past few weeks. I don’t consider myself a designer or a programmer, but I wanted to make something simple like this for fun, and now I figure I might as well have some fun promoting it too. The idea is basically a rehash of Google Profiles, except with a slightly different pitch. So let me know what you think. A couple of specific questions I have: Does this actually work as a minimum viable product? Is that feedback tab on the side an effective way to collect feedback from regular users?

A quick weekend side project. I am curious if the like count of a candidate for office can predict if they will win. For the past month or so I have been tracking the likes of several campaigns. Today I put a prettier face on it. http://cmpgns.net/ After the election I will do a quick analysis of the races and see if anything interesting turns up. If anyone adds a candidate I'm missing, I'll go in and add their opponent

Hello HN, About a month ago, I posted an "Ask HN" to see if there was any interest in having daily available .com domain name lists. The names would all be appropriate for startups, blogs and websites, nothing else. While the response wasn't overwhelming, it was quite positive and a few individuals got me motivated to go through with this. I decided to go with the free newsletter format so I could keep some form of exclusivity for the subscribers, giving them a better chance at getting a name they before somebody else gets to it. You can find the old discussion here:…

http://hackerviews.com We wanted to create a better way to find and meet up with fellow Hacker News readers.
