That is not how you make bacon

As the man who made that bacon - I blame iPhone's HDR camera!

Honestly, you can't just toss bacon into a pan willy-nilly and whip it around like scrambled eggs. You must lovingly lay out each slice so they all get the heat and crisp up. That bacon is all soggy and tangled together. You need to go home and do some serious soul searching. Talk to your bacon. See what it needs, and more importantly satisfy those needs. Help your bacon reach it's fullest potential. Then come back to me.

Sorry but I don't like the UI. May be it's just me but black doesn't look good on the product you use daily. Looks more like a porno. :(

Black = Porno. There's some UI guidance you don't see every day!

This probably will come as a shock to you, but I won't even try out that app. The screenshots look nifty, I love you did it in 48h; also in rails. Normally I really am into new productivity tools and can't wait to check them out.

However, you got it right when you wrote "bacon isn't as popular as we were lead to believe." Honestly, I find it disgusting to read equally much about your 'manly' behaviour - drinking just so much coffee and killing off a lot of cattle to get your weekend fix.

Sorry guys; I'm sure your project is technically great. The popular reaction will assure you of this, so I don't have to.

Love the UI, but was hoping for some info in 'How it was built'... technology stack, implementation process, etc.
