thanks for the feedback! we won't be just limited to gmail (but yes google could roll out these specific features). The idea is that it works as a platform for you to setup your own channels based on your email habits, you can use the web hooks to tie into services you already use and help automate your existing processes.

The features we've adding on the landing page are examples of how it can be used, rather than specifics.

thanks for the heads up!

Hey, I'd love to hear your feedback on our startup (launching outta LDN), Tray is a cloud service focusing on email, it allows you to define rules on your inbox and intelligently handle incoming messages (think an advanced iffft specifically for email).

Please drop a comment below or email me: rich@tray.io, I'd love to hear of any specific functionality you'd like to see in the product, or generally any thoughts on our approach.

nb we are taking a lean approach to help validate the idea so your feedback is crucial!

nice - this works much better than the apps

Interesting concept.. why did it not continue?

I took a look at the paper, and noticed there was something about rendering the relationships between bits of data, but cant see that anywhere?

interesting, I've been digging on peoples workflow habits for the last few weeks and pulling around some ideas

Interesting idea, be useful to be able to test a service and pause the trial, meaning you get a prompt for a time you've set in the future, or 'in battle' as you describe it ;-)

Yep short mail is great but you have to login and use their service to manage your email. I'm thinking more along the lines of being able to add a layer between imap and the client.

This looks really interesting, we started developing a tool identical to this recently - had a play with it and it works well. Well done guys! it's certainly got us thinking

However you look at it, with the clout Rose has (over 1 mill twitter followers) whatever he does next will get a ton of press and interest,probably even more so given the quick shutdown of oink. So why not save some cash and go for something new, at least they've come out and said it rather than leaving it to slowly die and not commenting.

This question just seems so wrong, don't try and create someone else's product. Think of something yourself, test if its viable and build it.

Hey - not at all thats really useful feedback! I know it needs a lot of work, and I struggled to find a track. It needs a story element. At the moment I just wanted something to show the process of making a plan. The link you provided is really useful - I'll start working on the next iteration.

Thanks - size is definitely an issue. I used jing and exported / converted the swf into a demo copy of final cut. Then I edited the scenes together and looped a free guitar sample.

Appreciate the feedback

Needed to make a video as quickly as possible to get our new homepage up. Would love to hear any feedback, and any tips on the next iteration which needs a bit more of a story! (than an edited screencast)

I think this is just changing the way the younger 'facebook' generation think, posting becomes less personal and more about how you like to be perceived. Those of us that grew up without facebook embraced it as a nice way to share personal items with our friends.

Now it seems more of a PR stream, people staging photos for facebook, carefully updating status's knowing that a wider audience can see.

For me timeline represents facebooks focus on a single identity that you control, rather than representing who you actually are.

I was getting around 4 hours sleep per night until I made a change and stopped taking my laptop to bed! Instead I make sure I leave it out of my bedroom and read a book to wind down for 30-45 mins before sleeping. This has drastically improved my sleeping patterns.

As much as I thought spending an hour or 2 reading online before sleep would be ok, it'd send me into a cycle and I simply didn't sleep at all.

I wonder if SOPA will help unite some of the web big guns, obviously they are teaming up to call out SOPA but maybe this will help develop further relationships and we'll see some partnership projects grow. SOPA could end up doing more good than it does harm, assuming this backlash see's it off.

Also the fact that Godaddy has had their fair share of bad PR over the past year, there seems to be a pretty bad feeling against them anyway - this just gave everyone another excuse!

Just bumped the server with an update to the social connection issue - should be back online now. Thank you so much for your feedback so far it has been really useful.

Please keep it coming!

There is a skip button, but it clearly isn't clear enough. I think it probably needs to be more directive 'skip this and let me plan' - thanks for feedback

We don't have that in yet, I'll make sure we get a fix into the next update as you're right it's important. In the meantime if you want your details removed please email me - rich@plan.nr and I'll make sure it's actioned.

Would love to get some HN feedback, we've just launched into private beta in the last few days.

Been playing this all morning, I'd love to see the pig protection milked to the max. A fun plug would be 'how many pigs saved to date' and maybe when a certain number has been hit then for some PR you could adopt a pig - http://worldanimalfoundation.homestead.com/AdoptAPig.html

Be pretty funny to see a load of blog posts about saving pigs, due to help from players!

I've possibly had too much coffee this morning..

I wonder how many new fans those artists got from being on spotify, how many people then paid to see them live and recommended them to their friends. It's difficult to put a price on that.

I love the analogy, it makes total sense. You can always bet at some point someone else will have the same idea as you, it's just your job to make sure if you believe in it you create it and do it justice. Unless I'm a hippy too..

it's our HQ!

This is true, I accept that its very hard to comment without knowing a little more. It seems as thought there is a very quick judgement passed before we really know exactly how its being played out.

If I worked for Zynga and I saw co-workers who were under performing heavily rewarded I'd find that pretty de-motivating. It seems to me this has been misreported, if your not performing in your role and you get fired you'd lose the unvested stock anyway so by offering a new position and cutting your stock you are given a second chance.

Without knowing how the performance is being judged and what the communication with the staff is like its impossible to really pass comment, do we really think that employees are given no prior warning and suddenly they are re-housed and their stock cut? Seems a little far fetched to me, especially before an IPO where the press are going to be hot for you anyway.

Do you get much repeat business? Can you speak to old/previous clients and find out what they would be willing to pay?

Can you improve your own productivity, what takes up most of your time when managing the translation?
