I run an ESP in The Netherlands: https://laposta.nl

I love my work but my attitude towards it is European ;) I have 4 kids and a beautiful wife and I spend a lot of time with them.

I got this email about an hour ago. I'm really going to miss this for making the documentation on my website searchable. Does anybody know of a good alternative?

One of the main characters in Tolstoy's War and Peace (Pierre) was also almost executed. You can read the scene here:

svdr··on Show HN: Lost & found tags
It would be great if you always knew where all the objects you own are. For example, if you know you still have some nice LP's in the basement, but you can't find them, you should be able to take al look at your phone and see exactly where they are. (They might show up at a friends place :) Or, if you know there should be some clothes for your kid in a particular size, the app should list all of them available, and show in which box the are exactly.

Not doable yet I guess, but definitely something people will want.

svdr··on Hey Google, thanks for making my daughter cry.
When my son (10) filled out his g+ profile, in which they ask for date of birth, his gmail was blocked. I could reopen it by confirming (lying) he was older, and paying a small fee by credit card.
