Sendity.com

Hey HN- this is a project that took me a few weeks to build out. It's something I've been wanting to make for a long time, but never could connect the dots to see how it could be done. Sendity.com is a super simple way to send physical letter. I'm obviously not the first to this idea or anything, but since Lob.com makes printing+mailing so damn easy I thought I'd take a swing at it. I learned a lot about development throughout. I didn't expand much into their API but it has some awesome features I could cook in. Where do you think I could take it from here? I have grand ideas of what it…

    Kinda like posterous?2012 · ▲53

    Always loved posterous, but I thought it would be really cool if somehow you could treat email addresses like twitter hashtags and usernames. So after 2 days of coding, it's here and works. It's not pretty, but it's really neat & kinda addicting. Anyone can email or text anything to _ _ _ _ _ [email protected] and it immediately creates a public page and an email address. For example, say you wanted to create a page for coding errors called fmlcodesucks, you could just text or email it to [email protected] and it instantly posts your picture to that page and lets anyone contribute by…

    Open sourcing my email sending startup2019 · ▲38

    Hi all, I've posted a few times here about Maildown, a startup that I've been trying to validate lately. Due to lack of time to focus on this, I've taken the decision to abandon the project as a startup, but to make it available as an open source solution instead. The (still very basic) github repository is here: https://github.com/chris104957/maildown Maildown now exists as a simple CLI wrapper for Amazon SES which bakes in Markdown and styling support, making it much easier to get transactional mails up and running in any project Thanks for looking, Chris
