At Guidebook, we don’t think it should be expensive or difficult for organizations to connect with their audiences on their mobile devices.

More and more people are relying on their smartphones and tablets for information about what’s going on, and how to get the most out of the experience once they get there. Forward-thinking organizations have realized this, and are trying to make the transition, but it can be a daunting task to create an app from scratch.

Guidebook makes it simple and inexpensive to go mobile. Come join us in the challenge!

People want a fair playing field, but is title II the best way to achieve that? Does anyone know of a more effective solution?

Also a designer can tell a dev exactly what he/she wants in terms of animation values (assuming they're using origami)

Even if this is true, this assumes that the snapchat user base will remain stable. I've yet to see a substantial argument of why snapchat isn't just another fad. Does anyone else have this concern or am I just being pessimistic?

From the data I've found, this is incorrect. The average US household spends 4% of it's pretax income on gas, whereas the average British household spends around 10%

Except that you can't declare bankruptcy and walk away from a student loan, like you can with a house. The idea of a bubble bursting is the idea that all of the money will disappear at once, but instead what will happen is people will be plagued with debt that they can't repay quickly causing long term growth problems because the college graduates will have less spending money.

Hmm, I took that as him trying to be friendly, but making a bad assumption.

What's with the animosity?

I'm reading that book right now and I absolutely love it.

"Our FarmVille franchise teams continue to innovate and deliver ground breaking new social experiences like County Fair"

I'm not sure he knows what innovation means

Agreed! I'm all for constructive criticism, but some of the comments in this thread are unnecessarily negative. This project looks really cool!

I saw your post and Reddit and was going to recommend that you post it on HN, but I see that you didn't get much love here!

Anyway, I've always wanted to do something like this but never got around to it. It looks awesome, and I'm definitely going to play around with the code! Great job!

I hope this satire.

They discontinued Reader and added a new feature to Drive. Get over it. If you don't like it, don't use it.

I don't think that there's an option to make your HN email public (yours isn't listed), so if you reply to this comment with it I can email you.

OBD-II just standardizes the connection port, meaning that you can plug in the device, but not all cars support the same information and features. Most of them do, but I'm sure that the guys over at Automatic don't want to sell someone a product that isn't supported or tested for their vehicle.

Hey Mojoe!

It's great that someone is finally doing this! Which company are you founding? Is it Fleetio or Automatic or something else? I've been trying to make a prototype of something similar to this using a raspberry pi and an OBD-II interface. Regardless, I've been kicking this idea around for some time so I'll toss a couple ideas at you that I've come up with.

-Environmental footprint/impact. OBDII offers emissions information (I think) and you could do some really cool "green" stuff with it if you wanted to go that direction.

-Could you make an easy-to-use API for the device and sell it to developers? This could be profitable, but might create competition for you...

-Online car problem troubleshooting? Upload the error code and specific car information to your site, and you can diagnose the car without having to pay for an expensive mechanic to look at it right away. (Kind of like bargl's idea)

-Assuming it could interface with a mobile device, you could mount a tablet in your car and display realtime information

-Reminders such as oil change or similar maintenance

Except torque is only for car enthusiasts, and it looks like the general population would have use for this.

Please do! I'd love to see it!

As far as tabs go, if I need organization I have multiple windows of Chrome open with different tabs across different work spaces on my Macbook, and I can just three finger swipe between them.

Usually, I have one window open with a bunch of relevant iOS dev tabs (Apple Docs / stack overflow threads) in the space with XCode and Simulator, and another window open with my email / work-related tabs open just a three-finger swipe away.

Also, does anyone else find that giant banner "A new kind of magazine for thoughtful shoppers." a bit intrusive?

Also MySpace was a failure?? It sold for $500 Million. Ask Tom Anderson what he thinks about it.

Because of the concept I didn't think originally that it was satire. It's not a terrible idea and I could definitely see people using it. My first though was, "Hah, that's kind of a good idea!". Then I actually started looking at web page and it became apparent.

This is awesome. Took me a little while to realize that this was satire... I made the mistake of clicking on the video tab.

Sorry to steal your karma! I just saw this and got too excited

Looks pretty cool:
