I'll give it a go ... always been interested in personal analytics.

I like the idea ... signed up!

(as others have mentioned, showing a few samples prior to registration can't hurt)

she emptied a chamber pot over his head, according to wikipedia.

so, yes ... i don't think he listed her as one of the reasons to not take hemlock.

I like interesting words ...

Clicking on the word reveals it's meaning ... and a reload gets another word.

I'm currently working on harvesting various corpora and on different measures of "interesting".

I might add commenting on specific words and submission of words soon.

The problem with the idea of such a website is who decides what is a positive act and what's a negative act ? Maybe some sort of voting mechanism by interested users?

Not really.

ZumoDrive doesn't use space on your drive for it's storage. It simulates a network drive as far as your OS is concerned.

Dropbox actually uses space on your drive , and syncs that across your machines.

So , ignoring local caching done by ZumoDrive , we could think of it being network intensive , whereas Dropbox is space intensive.

(I could be wrong and would love clarification. Also, 'intensive' is probably not the word I'm looking for , but I can't come up with a better one now)

Do you have a link for that article? Sounds like something I'd be interested in reading. Thanks.

thanks.

> Two of them, John Petrucci and John Myung, spent their high school days fanatically devoted to practice (before applying to Berklee together). During that time they had an agreement with each other to practice their respective instruments six hours a day, and if they hung out in the evening it was with the understanding that they'd finished their six hours practice.

Source? (Not that I doubt what you're saying. I want to read more from where that came from)

I don't know of any but this is ,IMO , a very good idea.

(Hmm. Your ideas are intriguing to me Amichail,and it turns out,that by reading HN , I have subscribed to your newsletter. :) )

Any plans of releasing the source code?

> In the same vain

I think you meant "in the same vein" ... :)

Yup, if you're anywhere near Mountain View. :)

One step at a time :)

What you suggest would benefit from the performance/feedback from what the OP suggests.

This is basically what I am interested on working on currently , using "clues" gleaned from what the user is doing (a la RescueTime) to reorganize/reformulate a user's search query.

I believe he was referring to Rambo III. :)

i dont understand , are we still talking about a qwerty keyboard? or a special kind with just two rows, one of which is a "home" row that is placed wherever certain fingers are?

how would the computer know which key your finger was on to figure out what keys are relative to that finger?

you'd need to know where 'Q' was , absolutely , for you to know where "W" , "E" , "R" , "T" and "Y" were relative to that.

But pretty cool idea though ...

apology for what?

He's providing a free service that you tried and didn't like.

a service that suggests twitter usernames? something like domainr.com

IQ in unequivocal terms ...

Thats your problem right there ...

I find that stackoverflow.com generally has very good answers about stuff like best practices.

I'd be interested in lifetagg.com if you dont see a use for it anymore ...

letsdrive.us -> for a carpool solution

neighbourly.org -> for a craigslist+maps mashup.

> Microsoft has made a LOT of innovations. A massive amount of modern computing is based of how accessible microsoft made computing - if we still had to recompile our kernel to enable sound, I don't think we would be near as far as we are.

Sure , they've enabled innovation. How much have they actually done ...

The data could be useful ...

There could a lot of data gleaned about TV viewers , for example .. by analyzing power usage trends during tv show times. If a show is watched more , then advertisers would want to target that show more ...

I didn't mean to come off as short.

This seems to be a mutually beneficial service. The users stand to gain as can be seen from the testimonials here http://www.google.org/powermeter/demoproject.html

So the users aren't giving away anything freely.

Google obviously gains , with hard data about consumer usage.

They never supply something for free unless it will provide them the data they crave.

Why should they supply you anything for free?

someone else's content ..."

I seem to be missing something here ... How is what they're doing any different from what any other search engine does? Do you disapprove of the search engines making money too?

Maybe the OP wanted the opinions of savvy , knowledgeable users of python web frameworks as well.
