Boot ‘strapped’ in Detroit
My partner and I have been working hard on HealPay. After researching other billing applications, like FreshBooks, we think Invoicing should be free. We are excited to launch additional features pending Hacker News feedback :] View the app at http://www.healpay.com

In plain words
HealPay is a free invoicing application designed for businesses that need billing functionality without the cost of traditional solutions. Built by a Detroit-based team, it offers core invoicing features and was launched with plans to expand based on user feedback. The product targets small businesses and freelancers seeking an alternative to paid billing software like FreshBooks.

InvoicingAPI is finally ready2024 · invoicingapi.com · ▲20After a lot of personal hardships over the past year, I can finally say that InvoicingAPI is ready for public use. It's a platform where you can create beautiful, customizable and dynamic, tax-compliant invoices with payment links built in, so your clients pay you faster. In your dashboard you can see your payments and payouts to your bank. This is just an initial release and plenty of features are in the pipeline, like an online builder, automated sending, 3rd party app integration, etc. Feel free to poke around and let me know your thoughts!

hi all, I've always wanted to make my own game, but couldn't afford a thousand-dollar adobe (flash+photoshop) license. I'm not a talented programmer, have no degree in CS. But I understand some elements of design. So I got me a copy of ImpactJS, and after about 5 months of steep learning curve (at least for me), I managed to come up with a game. I also integrated it with a highscore and badge system, similar to what you get at Kongregate. You need to login with Google/OpenID to earn badges/scores. link is: http://www.hotbazooka.com/privatejoe hope to hear some feedback/questions from you guys!

I remember seeing the Dragon Labs Dragonfish Glowing Form Demo[1] when it first came out, and it always stuck in my head. They implement the effect by using a rather large background image and a mask image and move the background image around via Javascript. I was inspired and wanted to see how close I could get with CSS3. I recommend using a Webkit browser [and you can see an alternate version of the animation on Firefox 4].
