I created this little script out of my own frustration. The game is great, I shared it with a lot of friends. But what really annoys me is that the guess map is not expandable. It's just tiny.

This userscript tries to remedy that. It adds an "Expand Map" button to the UI and makes the map almost fullscreen (http://s3.amazonaws.com/uso_ss/23108/large.png?1378278171)

To all the fellow hackers: it has an unfortunate bug. The Google Map does not resize automatically when the window is expanded, the browser must be slightly resized to trigger the Google Map to expand as well. Since the author used Backbone to write the app, it's completely encapsulated and doesn't allow access to any variables. If you know how to fix this, I'm listening!

Wow, talk about persistence!

Obviously when your product is growing you don't have time to just rewrite the payment processing and migrate all data to a different provider.

I guess this is where something like "Spreedly" comes in. It is an additional abstraction that allows you to switch payment providers easily. At least so I read. Does anyone have experiences with that?

I always roll my eyes when that happens. And then there is a 50/50 chance I search for the actual link - if I'm REALLY interested I edit the URL manually.

Model Number: H2G2-42.

- Wasn't "42" the answer to life, the universe, and everything in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy?

- And H2G2 is an abbreviation given to the book, as well as the name of a website dedicated to making a guide to life, the universe, and everything.

We see what you did there, Google. Your clever nerd humor will not be lost on us!

This will make it really hard to distinguish manipulated/generated photos in the near future. Wow.

Honest? Insane? Cool? Unhealthy?

Oh and it seems the favicon has an odd white background :-?

Other than that, the site looks extremely sleek :)

But I'd rather see something different than a (blurry) image of the founder looking somewhere off screen. I mean it's "personal", I get it - but this can be improved. While this might sound superficial, it's the first thing that came to my mind ...
