Do you plan to generate revenues, and if so, how?

Your logo reminds me of a mix between Sparrow and the Svbtle logos:

Keep up the good work!

Nice scri.ch btw. You still working on it?

And as for revenue etc, I just built this for fun last week cause I was tired of how Posterous kept getting more bloated every time I used it. No thoughts about this as a business, really.

I’m still working on it occasionally (it’s an Open Source Software): https://github.com/bpierre/scri.ch

I asked for the revenue because we thought about it after the initial scri.ch release, but we came to the conclusion that there is no real market here. It does not matter: we built it for fun and we are using it a lot!

is a repost of mine to test, feel free to delete. I only posted anon as I have no twitter acount

1) How do I edit an anonymous post once made? Perhaps a cookie allowing editing from the same IP as posting for half an hour? Do twitter log ins get to edit?

2) How is the url scheme going to grow. 26^2 at present. Will it be 26^n automatically?

1) You can't edit anonymous posts as of right now. Good suggestion though, I could just use a unique identifier to allow you to edit within the same session. If people besides me actually start using this, I'll definitely add that. 2) Yah, it's 26^n

No reason just the idea that when you 'launch with ordinary people' having tonnes of 'testing posts' might be annoying?

I like to use a little formatting now and again, italics &c. So I will try that in a bit.

456976 for four letters should keep you going for a bit :-) Er, are you going to skip over certain three and four letter urls?

I don't believe that this might catch on, but as a branch of online self-publishing it could still live a little.

There's nothing wrong with it this way, it just feels slightly off because it's different from most blogging platforms and news sites.

Otherwise, love the simple design and philosophy.

I was thinking of something like that, but wanted to make the use case as general as possible so people can decide how they want to use it. Maybe I'm wrong :S

I don't know about the technical solutions, but the way Branch currently integrates with Twitter, the way you can be conversing on Branch and still your conversation spills over Twitter...is what I have in mind in terms of this type of simple blogging service. The paragraph or couple of sentences should spill over to Twitter, and/or the Tweets should spill over to this type of service. All this not necessarily in a way it is currently setup by other platforms (like Wordpress, you can cross-post blogs to Twitter) but something naturally with least effort and distraction.

Am I making sense? There may be some services out there providing this experience, but ... anyways.

You might want to switch off DEBUG=True in your settings if you're expecting HN to come knocking :)

As for user dashboards, there's just this for now http://throwww.com/u/sfard

Also I can't login with twitter atm.Anyone else having this problem ?

As for bugs, for now you can email me... saeidm[at]gmail.com or @sfard on twitter.

Much appreciated!

Here's why I built Throwww.

My anonymous post was immediately "viewed 2 times."

This is still a nifty little tool.

And thank you!
