After I started posting "Stories" with Facebook, which shows you viewers as well as "likers", I was surprised by how many lurkers there really are. Even lurkers are very much Facebook users, especially when serving ads is concerned.

I like the list, but it would be nice to know the tech stack (if any) as well. As a back-end engineer in C# I know I'm a "minority" in the startups world typically. :)

A web app to manage human relationships. Reminders to ping people over varying periods of time, emphasizing note-taking to help stir up conversation topics.
I see myself using this in my personal life, with former business colleagues, as well as when job interviewing.

As an engineer looking to launch an app with a wide target audience, should I focus on marketing to individual niches and gain traction, or explain how my tool can actually help everyone?

Monkey Island 2: Lechuck's Revenge had a great demo as well. I might recommend adding that.

Re:The Homely Mutt

I have spent hours and hours configuring my `mutt`, `offlineimap`, `putmail.py`, but I have since grown disenchanted. In my experience, `offlineimap` is annoyingly prone to crashing without any indication. Thus, checking mail within `mutt` becomes unreliable. However, my favorite aspect of `mutt` has been and remains being able to send e-mails very quickly and easily through Terminal.
echo "Hello World!" | mutt -s "Test E-mail" -a "file.txt" [email protected]

The purpose of BitTorrent is peer-to-peer file sharing. Period. While it is all too often used for distributing works illegally, its primary purpose is not that. Consider reading the Wikipedia page[1] for some examples of effective and legitimate uses of the protocol.

Further, when you make a purchase, your download link also has an option to increase your donation (in case OP feels that he wants to contribute more than a dollar later one).
And as far as bandwidth goes, there is a Bittorrent download option that probably beats out the Steam servers anyway.

The audio delay issue persists for me in version 2.0.1 like the parent commenter. Among other issues is an increase in random crashing. The new interface isn't particularly inviting, either. Reading through the other comments here has caused me to revert to the older version with which I was never unhappy with.

Well done. This is the sort of app you look at and think "Why isn't this built into the operating system already?"

I like Tabzilla, and I may make use of it. Whether it's really functionality that people would use is another question.
