Hey Grant, I saw your news:yc app in Installous and see that it was submitted by you (chpwn). Usually when app-authors submit their own apps to Installous, it's to deter pirates by shaming them and disabling the whole functionality of the app until it gets cracked by someone else, or to log who actually pirates.

I haven't gone the Installous route, so I'm wondering what you've decided to do with the version on filedude and fileape?

That's actually the full app. news:yc is open source, and I want anyone to be able to use it, even if they don't want to (or can't) pay. Since building the app yourself isn't always easy (or possible), I submitted it there so anyone could install it easily.

You're a pretty cool guy, Grant.

Just that makes the $5 price tag even more justified. Rock on!
