I can't browse the site on my iphone(news.yc, chrome & safari), it locks up during render.

When Jason Calacanis interviewed him at Launch Fest in March, Jason suggested David could & should be Ballmer's successor, ASAP. David politely dismissed the idea, but it seemed to me that the notion wasn't completely foreign to him or that he wouldn't be interested in such a thing.

"The reason we raised 400M in capital, was thinking ahead. I mean we bought a website in the United States called VacationRentals.com for 35 million bucks. The only reason we bought it was so Expedia couldn't have that URL." -Brian Sharples, CEO of HomeAway

I'm really glad to see this open sourced. It could easily lead to a boom of niche web search engines.

BTW, long ago I hoped Gigablast would become a popular google competitor; no such luck. I remember asking Matt if I could provide an official IE toolbar (when they were the rage) he declined; sadly. My hope has shifted to duckduckgo.

I look forward to forking!

I wish there was an X for Y analogy or a ___ for ___ that would resonate.

I always use their marketing speak: "A better way to build apps" but of course that's difficult to back up with brevity and clarity. I find myself going through bullet point features, as it sounds like you do to.

Actually all but remember the milk is currently available as a channel.

However, I agree that additional actions would be nice. My favorite would be extracting links from emails, so that I could send them to pocket (from reading list newsletters).

It's open to personal interpretation. There are certainly a number of varied factors that could be used, but to start out I figure letting the community up/down vote will determine a prevailing consensus on what makes a repo "similar."

As for me, my primary factor is: mutually exclusive usage. If I need to scrape some page and want to find a jQuery like parser for node I'll either use JSDom or Cheerio, but not both.

Thanks for sharing, this will ease some of my friends anxieties today.

It would be nice to know if you aren't accepted, with an official message. I've been thinking, based on an FAQ, that they only contact invitees.

Are there any past applicants who have know if they do indeed contact groups who are uninvited?
