A personal Gmail▲127
Hey guys, so I've been building my own Gmail for the past few weeks and would like your feedback.

I built a mockup/prototype/wireframe editor in ten weeks▲42
Hi HN, After watching a lot of Show HN's here, it's finally my turn to show something. This is the first real project I have shipped, so it is extra special to me. For those who will inevitably ask why I made yet another mockup editor I covered it on our blog (http://blog.mocktailsapp.in/why-build-yet-another-mockup-editor-tm).

Dofsome.com - Chrome-less photo hosting▲37
Hi, this is a project I've been working on for about 2 months. I am definitely not a designer, so I tried to keep the GUI to minimum and really make the presentation about photos and as fluid as possible. Any feedback welcome! :)
