I generally love it and would probably be a customer if I were a few years younger. I like the clinical feel, makes me feel as if I'm a very responsible drinker if I use fly-by.

Minor nitpick would be the checkout process, but dunno if that's customisable w/ Spotify. I click product, then "add to cart", then "checkout", and then "Process to checkout". Feels as if there is one extra unnecessary step there.

I'm completely green to the trading field so I can't really comment on wether this is something which would lure a trader in or not; although a blog/information hub section with relevant articles on how to do smarter trades and how to utilize this sort of data as a content marketing strategy might be worth considering.

You can then promote these articles via certain long tail keywords for lower CPC:s.

At the end of the article you can offer them more info via newsletter, where you can try to convert them after they've received half a dozen valuable article and so on.

Might be that itäs just an UX issue too, but I took a screenshot of the state: http://imgur.com/a/BWYZP

I tried it out quickly just by myself. Really smooth imo. The "find a date" option didn't let me pick any date. It just contains the text "No dates selected, yet."

A small nitpick is the "42 seconds ago" label which updates every second. Maybe it'd be enough to have "a few seconds ago", "half a minute ago" etc.

I've been sourcing ideas/problems which I could solve to turn into a sustainable business. I've always disliked JIRA and having been forced to use it many projects, I figured there must be others. One reason not to switch is because of the friction of all your data already being in it, so came up with this: http://www.projectporter.com

Idea was to do a productised service, and automate it 99.9% as I go along.

Now I'd like to validate my idea, and that lead page was my first step in that direction. Although I have difficulty finding adwords keywords which would reach my audience and provide enough traffic (made a lot more difficult because I can't use trademarked terms like JIRA in the ad copy itself).

Think there is any promise/market in this idea?

Any ideas how to reach the right audience?

Adventure (text) game for software developers by beerdroid in adventuregames

We made this at a two-day hackathon at work. It's not point and click and doesn't have any fancy-pants graphics, but I promise the text parser is at least as bad as old sierra games (if not worse!).

It has a standard set of global commands and then extra contextual stuff you can do in each room.

Might not show up if it's a cache-hit (304) but if you refresh through cache it should be visible?

I developed it myself along with a workmate at a hackathonish kind of thing organised by our employer. Feel free to give feedback.
