yeah... could have gone my whole life without knowing this

When you have a Ph.D. in Astrophysics who spends his time writing loads of web comics, I'm pretty sure you can write as many fantastical programming languages as you like without having to have smoked anything :)

My favourite is "ZOMBIE - a language designed for evil necromancers."

I didn't think it was crazy. Although for complex applications Piet needs bigger and bigger images... but then most things start that way.

You can fill in the "about" section in the profile with text can't you?

Most users put their web site URLs in there.

you're welcome.

I am currently working on my own Tweet Suite, shall have to let you know when it's ready so you can repay the favour ;)

Yes, I do. So If you allowed me to click the option I wanted (e.g. free or pro) then you could record that selection as session data in your web app, then take me to the Twitter page.

Then like you say, take me down a altered registration path if I chose pro.

I suspect his application saves the datetime of when the tweet is to be made and simply submits it at that given time.

There is always room for more, HN has taught me that.

Nice work for a weekend product. How does your system handle spam? e.g. if I schedule a tweet every 1 second to 20 accounts that may get your oAuth or ip blacklisted from Twitter.

I could only see what the Pro cost is very small at the bottom of the screen. You should make your pricing structure more obvious, and I would like to select which version im signing up for before I sign up for it.

I am so tempted to waste half my day playing with this. One day this will replace 3D barcodes and people will get mobile phone apps from soda cans.

why do I get the feeling that ring would pull all of that dudes knuckle hairs out.

No there aren't many, i've totally given up on my Symbian phone.. so should Nokia imho

mores the pitty :(

Cool, thanks PG... roll on next Saturday :)

I love it.. change with the times, dare to be modern and move along. All companies could learn from this.

Does the 13th of March still stand for all those who made the deadline?

If that is the case then i'm going to get my Nexus One sooner than I had planned (stupid exchange rate)

Awesome!I've always fancied myself as a bit of a beatboxer... anyone know if it's available on the android?

Excellent Terry, nice and simple and free, have bookmarked this for use very soon.

Quite a useful post, almost everything there I had considered the right things to do already, but it's nice to have an account of someone who has gone through it, so you know you are not alone in the same approach, thanks.

I too am jealous of the Y Combinator Experience. To rectify this I have submitted my application. I don't have a degree from MIT either, and this blog post has helped me remove some of my concerns. Thanks Ryan.

I love PeeWee Herman-esque machines, used to try and make them all the time out of Meccano when I was a kid :)

Laughed when I saw all the broken TVs against the wall too :D

"if" it were an attack on Google rather than HTC, I wonder what it is that has spooked Apple to bring out such a big gun now, rather than earlier?

Someone just posted this on HN http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1161919 http://audiomap.tuneglue.net/

It might help you find some new music branching off bands you already like... it's pretty cool.

That's pretty cool!!

If I were paranoid I might think that this was a bit of an attack on Google rather than HTC.

It's all about control.. I often wonder if Apple have become the man in the screen, instead of the woman with the hammer.

I use FireFox for work and Chrome for surfing function/speed respectively.

FireFox keeps all my tabs nicely open, I can have all the helpful plugins installed on it. Chrome is completely fresh install, with only xMarks plugin to remain fast.

just goes to the home page!? have flagged it.

it's hypnotic, like a lava lamp... I like it.
