Description: Aggregates all front page stories onto one page.

I built my own reader after trying out several others out there [1].

The one thing that I really liked on Google Reader was that it aggregated all stories onto one page. So that's what I built. It may or may not be useful to you guys - would love some feedback either ways.

Bingo! http://www.slideshare.net/maciejoleksy/stop-thinking-up-star... +1. Thanks! This thing should be a sticky post on HN :)

We call it non-destructive editing in the audio world. I believe Aviary attempted what you're suggesting with Peacock, now Nodewerk [1].

A suggestion - As it stands right now, your title and blog is link-baity as it belittles the work of engineers at Google. Re-title your submission contextual search because you're searching within a silo or context of websites. The problem you're trying to solve is along the lines of millionshort.com in that you are trying to lessen the impact of over-optimization of results.

As for an explanation of the down-votes you're getting, I can only refer you to: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4962544

Advice from Paul Graham:

Don't regret your 20s: you were not ready for commitment: This was my reason for not starting a startup for most of my twenties. Like a lot of people that age, I valued freedom most of all. I was reluctant to do anything that required a commitment of more than a few months. Nor would I have wanted to do anything that completely took over my life the way a startup does. And that's fine. If you want to spend your time travelling around, or playing in a band, or whatever, that's a perfectly legitimate reason not to start a company.

PG's hierarchy of disagreement should be a sticky post on the front page for this reason. +1. Thanks for sharing.

  Successful salespeople don't pressure or bullshit the
  prospect into a sale. They are persistent, but they are
  always focused on achieving a deal where it will benefit
  all parties.

  I hopped in my dad’s car and drove to Waterloo.

Don't get me wrong, I think what Amar did shows a lot of hustle, and his case on them showed that he was willing to learn and is passionate. But still, I think ajross hit the nail on the end with saying "I think the end is near." And I think that end will be when Pinterest has their IPO.

Make it so.
