For 1, check out kimono. It was on show hn a while a go.

This looks close. I wonder how good it really is functioning though. I'll take a look, but it is a great idea.

edit: Ok, I dunno how well this really works, but it sounds/looks rather brokenish. Actually, I think this could have been easily made not nearly so pricey though. An API is expensive for this task, it's such a general task it should be a 1 time fee.

edit2: Actually this is pretty neat, but dang that price is annoying. I think anyone re-coding this idea as a plugin without a API cost and instead with a single cost but outputted the code would literally make 3x the amount of money.

edit3: Kimono is broken. Just did some tests on random blogs. It is not exactly as good as it suggests. It just chose a few sites that are easy to scrape from for it's display.


Very neat, I'm impressed. But your extension asks permission for data on all sites, if you'd limit that to vine only it'd be great.

Shameless plug; I made http://vinetuber.com/ a while ago but I think vine is limiting me.


Limiting you in what way?


I bought 3 moto g's and on the day they arrived switched the entire family to tmobile. I had enough of Verizon and now my bill is $100 a month. Can't beat that.


I would like to leave VZ too, but I'm simply too afraid that the coverage will not be there on tmobile and at&t - and especially I need to consider the WAF.


I understand. Coverage was what kept me on VZ for 10 years. What finally got to me was the fact that when I'm overseas I can just swap a sim and T-mobile's coverage has been improving exponentially.


depending on the plan, on tmobile, you don't even have to swtich the sim. they have international calls included.


I'd like to do that. Which plan?


There's only one family plan on the T-Mobile site now, called Simple Choice. It's $80/mo for 2 lines with unlimited talk + text + web (500MB at 4G per phone then slower speed), and $10/mo for each line after that. There's no contract or credit check, and you either bring your phone or buy one from them -- unsubsidized but payment plans available.


For $30 per month per line (no contract), there's also:

100 minutes talk, unlimited text, first 5 GB at up to 4G speeds.

Plan is only available for devices purchased from Wal-Mart or devices activated on T-Mobile.com.


Standard family plan. No contract!

Spotty service coverage but can't beat the price.


For me no other framework or language can be compared the speed of deployment on php. If an idea I've got is simple and don't want to take weeks deving, LAMP is there to the rescue. For example I built (http://vinetuber.com) in 3 hrs. But for bigger projects, I django.


Hilarious! If you guys would love to get a tweet a day from this follow HorseHN. I will tweet a couple a day.

Great work. I noticed on the Dan Siroker (optmizely) slide that he states them having 140 customers, is that number right? Their site says 6000.
