good stuff guys. Really nice simple interface. Best of luck to you guys.

I absolutely love historious. I've using it for about a month now and I can't imagine life without it.

I like the fact that you don't need to sign in with the bookmarklet (contrasted with instapaper).

The incredibly clean interface is another draw for me. A lot of these other sites are all "web 2.0"ish and to me it's bothersome.

I don't really like the chromium extension. I dunno, I think it's kinda useless seeing as though it's off to the side, whereas the bookmarklet is right on top of what I'm viewing. Also I like the notification window of the bookmarklet better than the extension. The window when a "page has already been indexed" on the extension is a bit annoying. I'd like to see maybe a keyboard shortcut for the extension, I think that would make it killer.

A couple things that I would like would be to search through a time range, also better browser integration would be nice. i.e. having pages show up under the autocomplete. The ability to select multiple items would be nice. Having a text only view (a la instapaper, readability). Also I wish there was a shorter url, I always spell historious wrong.

thanks!

It's a pretty cool AI problem

in addition, this is a pretty good guide. http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/edu/l-dw-linuxvi-i.html

this is a really cool idea. I'm interested to see how this turns out.

It lags a lot. That's really the only problem I see with it. A share link would be cool so it could be like tokbox.

yea I really liked muzzle. It's kinda annoying not having it.

That's pretty sick.

This is actually much simpler than it seems. It's just a microcontroller hooked up to the switch (just two wires). The version shown in the video costed much more than it needed to only because we didn't know what we were doing at the time. The whole package can be done wirelessly for ~$35. The benefit of this method is the expandability factor. It can be hooked up to almost anything.

The text message backbone is just a postfix mail server running incron which starts a bash script to parse the message.
