Check it out at www.dialasmile.me I came up with the idea while trying to create a romantic gift for my girlfriend. Her last boyfriend had made a webpage with all the reasons he loved her on it, and so of course I wanted to one up him! So I decided I'd set up a phone number that she could call whenever I'm not around and she's lonely, that would speak all the reasons I love her out loud.

    Hey HN, A couple of years ago, I was low on cash but wanted to surprise my girlfriend (now wife) with something special using my programming skills. I built a relationship timer web page! It features a real-time relationship counter (e.g., together for 2 years, 3 months, 5 days...), photos of the couple, and a heartfelt message.

    Hey HN, I made conversation starter game. Here's how it works: - Choose a theme like "Couples" or "Favorites" - Tap to reveal thought-provoking questions - Take turns answering and discover new things about each other I made ConvoCards because everyone has an interesting story to tell, but these don't often come up in day to day conversations. I also enjoy using them for journaling and self reflection. I hope you enjoy playing and learn something new about someone close to you!
