Do you have any recommendations for how to find good mp3 blogs? What you describe sounds like exactly what I'm looking for, but I haven't had much luck with blind searches.

...calling people who express a valid opinion on this "propellerheads" just seems unnecessarily insulting
When did "+1" become a valid opinion?
The few people who attempted to actually discuss the patch were more than drowned out by -- well -- a bunch of propellerheads.

Thanks for the feedback. We'll definitely be thinking about the best way to draw in new visitors and give them a clear understanding of what the site's about.

Hey! I'm the developer behind Philanthroper.com, and would love to see some discussion here and answer any questions you have.
We've gotten some good press so far [1], and we're completely thrilled to finally be live.
Today's featured NPO is particularly great; Computer Aid International refurbishes the computers you would have thrown out -- or, at least recycled -- and distributes them throughout Africa and Latin America (over 175,000 since they started in 1998).
Seems like just the sort of thing HN would be interested in!

Re:Evolution of a Ruby Programmer

It seems to me that programmatic evolution is often like biological evolution -- namely, it moves from "simple but works," to "Wouldn't it be cool if..." :)
