omg i need this so bad haha, thanks!

This looks great! It's familiar yet simplified! First thing I noticed was a hyperlink wasn't auto-linked to the address (may be intentional but figured I'd mention it). For example an email appeared with a link like "http://www.google.com" but I couldn't click on it.

It's an impressive product, there's no doubt about it. I just happened to be looking for a WYSIWYG like tool for scraping a page for changes. This seems more like a commercial grade product than a home user hobby haha nice site btw!

Holy crap that's expensive!

This is awesome! Like everything is relevant! Great work!

omg who would do this to the world

Great looking service

Ugh...that's heart wrenching :(

Well first of all it looks like this may be one of your first major endeavors for providing a web service, for which I applaud you!

I took a brief look and figured I might provide some constructive feedback.

- The first thing I noticed is that the site is not secure. This, unfortunately, is a deal breaker for me as I prefer not to have personal data of any sort, transmitted unencrypted.

- 2nd thing I noticed is the "other apps by this developer" are two very simple basic games. No offense but this looks bad to someone when they're debating whether to trust you with their life contents. Might consider starting a shell developer account, centered around just PhoneOmega and keep the other account for personal projects.

I'm flipping phones and ROMs like crazy, so I'm ALWAYS on the lookout for a good service like this. I literally end up syncing thousands of text messages from phone to phone and it's ridiculously time consuming. Once the app feels secure I'll feel more comfortable giving it a shot but in the mean time I'm not able to.

You should add a mailing list for people to keep up with your progress! Good luck!

So excited to see this! Great job guys!

Absolutely love this, only thing I wish it had was a "Delete Permanently" button as a lot of the stuff in my inbox is junk that I don't need archived.

Great job on this!

Looks like the early bird is already gone?

Very nice product though btw

Holy crap that's cool.

Check the article btw

"Most importantly, the reason we released an API is so that we can start modernizing the markup on Hacker News. Because there are a lot of apps and projects out there that rely on scraping the site to access the data inside it, we decided it would be best to release a proper API and give everyone time to convert their code before we launch any new HTML."

> "Trust us. You want us involved. The other computers in the chain between you and your facebook account aren’t so trustworthy."

I'm sorry but I have to agree with some of the others, without technical data behind the magic this just looks like a scam to me. Telling people 'don't trust them, trust us' doesn't give you any credibility.

Not gonna lie, had to read that title 4 times lol...

whoa whoa whoa...a WEB front end for INTERACTIVE command line programs???

Actually I believe that question almost needs it's own thread

> Wouldn't take much for that to be misunderstood and for you to get a nice friendly visit from the cops.

That's a very good point, I hadn't considered if there's a suspicion of what was done and what for (since I was only considering personal privacy)

Okay so what about a personal device like a laptop or desktop you own?

Name.com has always seemed painless to me.

Usually on registrars I feel like i'm digging to find something or figure out how to do something, Name.com makes it always feel like a click or two away somehow.

Nicely done. When you say using Impulse, is that a language?

Only thing worth noting is I found that I was unable to scroll with my mouse wheel for what it's worth.

I get a number of errors when I attempt to do lookups. Company lookup gave me an access denied

It's really just a resource that doesn't generally need updating...it's remain unchanged since it's inception back in 1999 as a resource for getting the exact time according to NIST's atomic clocks. I remember going to NIST's "official time" web page every few weeks in high school in the 90s so I could tell my friends that their watches were wrong because I had the "official time" haha

Oh thank God. I hated having to load java just for that website when I needed it once in a blue moon.

Ummm according to the article that title is NOT what's being proposed

This is brilliant, I hope this spreads like wildfire!

WOW that's expensive...information is power but geez!

"Project does not exist"

That's a hefty price tag for such a simple application

How in the world can you build a subscription based business off what's effectively a glorified javascript and analytical data??

Best thing they can do is offer a bounty :-D that seems to be extraordinarily effective
