What a great, original idea. Congratulations on your success. I love it when simple and obvious after the fact ideas take off.

Thanks! The great/sad thing about it is that there are hundreds of thousands of such ideas out there, but they'll only come to you when you actually follow up on a need someone has and try to fix it. I know this will be over soon (I've been saying this two weeks after it started, and it's been five years), so I am this mega-weirdo now listening extra hard on any conversations people working in 'actual' jobs have. I am the guy who stares at you all like a real creeper in the coffee shop, when you and a friend argue over why a tool your company makes you use, sucks. Always looking out for what could be next, if this one goes down.
