'Zappos for your mom'. Love it!

We may have to the next little while. Our server just got blacklisted for (we're assuming) going too many page requests. EDIT: And what's the URL for your mashup?

This hackerfollow.com interface is really good. And we felt the same about the validation!

'Finding' similar items would be a very cool feature to ad. We're thinking something using NLP to find posts similar to the posts by people you follow, whether it be from HN or any other sites with an RSS that you want to follow through it. OK if we ping you if/when we add this feature?

Fixed the 'Yuck' part. Still shows an error instead of homepage redirect though. Thanks for the note.

Thanks for this. Debug switched off.

Point taken. The problem it fixes for me is to get an update from people I care about, e.g. personal friends who may not get voted up much at all, but I care about the new stuff they post or comment on.

This is awesome. I'm in the list now. The whole point of Fedang is to let us follow the same person whether it be Twitter or hackernews or anything else. I might add some more adapters to it soon too so I can get one stream with all of andymorris's Twitter and Tumblr posts.

This is awesome. I had no idea it existed.

Great point Udo. I'd actually like to remove forcing people to sign up too because the whole point of Fedang is to not force people to keep track of multiple usernames all over the internet.

Also, your activity will probably come up shortly - sometimes your data gets in immediately, other times it might take 60 seconds or so.

I actually let it on intentionally for now so that our (hopefully) helpful users might also send through actual error text when they get a bug. This'd be something we remove a few hours or days from now.

Cheer faramarz! I'm doing the same sort of searching too. Some kind of 'people search' might be nice but not sure how that would be implemented.
Trindaz··on Q: Why is PageRank so complicated?
Thanks for this korch very interesting.
Trindaz··on Are your beliefs consistent? Take the test...
@Ayjay, What would consist as "very strong" proof?

Some of my thoughts on that: Any 'proof' God gives must be physical so we can measure it. Anything we can measure is a 'normal' part of the universe, and so can't be God.

Rainbows = not God because it's just water vapor and light

The universe = not God because it's what happens when you get some kind of powerful explosion that throws out matter and energy for billions of years.

God literally appearing in the sky in physical form announcing that He is God and that He's responsible for this creation = not necessarily God because it could be alien technology, or propaganda warfare from US evangelicals, or <insert theory here that will let us spend millennia arguing before deciding anything has been proved>

Trindaz··on Australia gets its own Y Combinator-type fund
Me too! Very excited about this one! --Trindaz on Fedang

I think the main reason I've liked it is I don't have to configure anything - just post anywhere and have it work. I'm interested now to see just how many people would try exploiting it even if they new the real user viewed every post personally before 'approving' it.

Doesn't sound petty at all - approval before publishing is a pretty minor tweak, rather than automatic publishing and only then being able to pull something off the feed. Cheers for the feedback! -- Trindaz on Fedang

Control panel on the site - I can 'de-own' any posts that erroneously get attributed to me. -- Trindaz on Fedang
Trindaz··on Ask HN: How do I meet people in an industry
Only the obvious: Fire your team, move house, then go to every event related to the TV industry that you can find out about.

Trindaz··on Tell HN: I'm launching in 30 days. No matter what. Hold me to it
Love that tag line - answered the first objection I had in mind!
