You Want everpix. They got shutdown but no product is coming close to what they had. Except maybe picturelife but they bloat their app with editing and social features unfortunately.

It we never reinvented the wheel it would still be made of stone.

Interested to hear the Hacker community's take on this.

We've been forecasting this for 2 years and agree with Nate Elliott : "As a result, marketers hoping to interact with consumers online might be better off investing in social features that exist on their own websites, or in smaller, more niche social networks, Mr. Elliott said."

That's why we built Hull in the first place.

Now this subject is this 15min's subject. What does the Hacker community think of this specific idea?

Js gained wide adoption thanks to favorable comparison on specific traits when compared to other languages.

- ubiquity - lower barrier to entry as far is toolchain setup is concerned. Nothing to install to build a Hello world. - no weird concepts to grasp at first: many commonalities with other languages, meaning you don't start the learning curve with a big step.

I could go on but the gist is that JS is kind of like the pop music of programming languages: easy to like, with room to grow (as opposed to Justin Bieber or Miles Davis who miss one of these traits.)

To the question of what will be the next "buzz" (Js is a buzz, but those have different timelines and emotional loads than "leave Britney alone") the answer is:

Something even easier to grasp and access with a barrier to entry, smoother learning curve and wider applications.

It might even be an abstraction like those of Brett Victor.

I'd say that's not so much the language but what it allows beginners to achieve that is wave-defining.

Development has become mainstream and JS is the Pop Music of our days.

This is GM

Newlines are supported on twitter in 3rd party apps, but not in the twitter card nor twitter app indeed.

Also, the blog is not called "Apple Sloppy UIs", but "Sloppy UIs". That still qualifies.

To clarify things, we just posted this on the web site:

We love Apple. We think this is the best way to point out what's not up to their standards so they can fix it. It's all about intellectual honesty, not trolling.

My point exactly. We love all things Apple, and I want to see those fixed.

two t's are better than one :)
