I would be interested to hear what you think the pain points may be. In truth I just started this up on a whim and didn't look into things too closely.

There's a whole load of them here : http://www.telescopeapp.org/showcase

It is pure unmodified Telescope. Will add an about page to site shortly.

So I wasn't really expecting this site to get to the front page of HN. It's pretty cool that it did though, I hope some people find it useful. Please contribute and get some good discussion going!

I don't think things are working 100% at the minute which is probably due to the load - it is running on a $3 pm OVH VPS. I'm quite amazed it is still running at all.

It is a Telescope app at the minute which uses Meteor, so there is no chance of it running without Javascript. It was just a quick evening idea that took about 5 minutes to set up. Telescope is pretty amazing how simple it is to set up.

I hear you about being able to run without JS - especially within Emacs. Awesome idea! If the interest continues I will look into rewriting the site (in a Lisp obviously) to serve static content. Could be a fun little project.

Thanks for the interest!
