Draftin is a great. I often use the Hemingway writing mode (no backspace or delete). I make the browser full screen, switch off the spell checker, and just write.

Thanks for adding this
It looks like a great idea, so how can I contribute?
Congratulations to the Holvi team, great service

Thanks for posting your story its made my day :) I'm studying in Joensuu, Finland. About 70km from Kitee where Nightwish originated.
I think the canvas is a great tool for discussing research. One can easily use it to plan a research proposal or article
Great idea guys, this will benefit the visual impairment community greatly :). I had a similar idea several years ago but for the web. Where you could use a sighted person's eyes to navigate a webpage.
An alternative could be cloud based eye tracking testing services such as http://www.gazehub.com/ where you can get a lot info about how visitos navigate... and you dont need large volumes of traffic
Relax your mind for a while. Spend a couple of days doing something completely different and look at the problem again
I misread your original comment your right, a visitor/user needs to have an eye tracker, but a website, only needs to have a tracking code
Hi, your thinking about right now. In a few years time, eye tracking will be as widespread as webcams are today. Plus there are already tens of thousand eye trackers in the world. And as the technology is maturing, its becoming more available
Hi, actually were not using webcams at all. We using real eye trackers. Commercial eye trackers are becoming cheaper (eg. $99 see https://theeyetribe.com/) and even the bigger eye tracking companies such as Tobii and SMI are starting to make low cost eye trackers.
Tobii, which is partly owned by Intel, has also already developed laptops that have eye trackers intergrated
We made it as easy as google analytics, where you just have to put a tracking code in your website to get eye tracking data
Hi, this is a great idea, perfect for when I'm in transit. It would be nice if you could add a feature to control the speed of the voice. The output is way too slow for my liking
Its amazing to view the surface of Mars from my browser

Just to add, if you think you can raise your child (startup) alone than don't be afraid to do that either. You'll never know, the right co-founder may be just around the corner, if at all
the same goes for Africa
This is a really great story
Congratulations Mark and Priscilla!!!
ps. He is wearing a suit to honor HIS WOMAN. He is showing her that he can suit up for her
I'm defiantly going to try this
Great idea. Consider making the notification reminders more flexible. So that the person can enter the weeks, days, hours, min themselves.
Great job. I'm willing to help with the front-end design and development, free of charge. Just send me an email (find it on my hn profile)
Great job. I especially liked the fan and tilt effects, I can see them being used in a real world project. They visually notify the user that new content has been added to the bottom of the list without too much distraction
I think that people are just creating polls to increase their karma
This sounds like a great app. Reading the comments makes me wanna try it, but I need an iphone + a man first...
Interesting idea (I especially like the wish feature)! Great implementation! How do you plan on getting users to come back after they've read(or asked) what they needed to read? Perhaps you can have a daily/weekly interesting thought-provoking question that will get users to come back...
Great job guys. I like the interface, its nice and clean all throughout the site. The only thing that was a bit distracting were the light-blue buttons on the dark-grey background on the front page.
For me the last time was in 2007. And I don't miss it
