That was my thought also. I'm hesitant to sign up unless I can see examples of what I'll be getting in my inbox. So.. thanks for adding that :)

> Why put a 'contact me' link instead of just listing the email address? I hate when I click 'contact me' and my native mail app opens. Nobody uses thunderbird mail, apple's Mail is okay I guess, and Outlook is just...no. Type out the stupid address and let me choose how I send it.

Ummm... top right is a "contact me" mailto link.

What. The background this was written on was pure white.

What an awesome idea, this needs to become a standard. This will lead to lots of interesting and previously impossible stories in the future!

You'll need a project manager for that.

Very awesome concept and design. I completely agree with your sign up method... Have none!

Did anyone really want an in-browser editor? It's the kind of thing that's cool in theory, but not productive.
As mentioned, there are already lots of portfolio tools. However yours is really nice and I love the built in endorsement feature. My one criticism is there's too much branding on each user's portfolio. I wouldn't want the huge green "want a portfolio like this" link at the bottom of my portfolio. The logo link (top left) and "Powered by Hoverboard" link (bottom right) is enough.

You should really have one sentence explaining what it does on the homepage. I'm not going to send a text to anyone without knowing what I'm sending first. Nice idea/design.
Re:.io domains with 3 letters remaining on Friday May 10, 2013 @04:11AM (#5685146)
Last time I checked, there were some left without numbers. However they all had the letter Q in them, which people seem to hate.
Re:.io domains with 3 letters remaining on Friday May 10, 2013 @03:43AM (#5685095)
Nice, lots of cool stuff in there. I also made a tool that searches for all available 2 letter .io domains at any given time. http://framespersushi.com/lab/two-letter-io/
Oh wow, I think they might be colour blind.

Re:Remaining .io domain names of common words on Tuesday May 07, 2013 @06:44PM (#5671357)
Correct. Inspired by this I just made a tool that finds ALL remaining two letter .io domains.

Check it out: http://framespersushi.com/lab/two-letter-io/

Re:Ask HN: Is Spamming the only way to get users? on Monday May 06, 2013 @10:34PM (#5666247)
Who did Facebook spam? Would you rather be Facebook or Instagram?

I don't have a strong opinion on this topic, just pointing out a flaw in your logic.

Youtube hasn't had dislikes for 2 days

If you go to any video on Youtube right now, you'll see there are 0 dislikes. The bar is 100% green. A while ago they switched dislikes on the rating bar from bright red to a subtle gray, making all the ratings look a lot more positive. Are they just having technical difficulties right now, or could they be easing into an only positive feedback system?

That's interesting... http://i.imgur.com/Idie3In.jpg
Wow that's really fun. The tools on the side are great. The only problem is the design is very ugly, making it hard to work with.
I have no idea who this guys is, but I remember hearing about this a week ago. Someone even put this up with all the details: http://www.diablowned.com/
Is it really? I find that sad. I thought by 2013 we'd grown out of that.
