Ask HN: How to scale my freelance job?

Hello,For the last 6 years I've been freelancing for fashion brands taking care of all technical aspects of their online presence. That means Shopify setup, image retouch, mailing list management, A/B testing for their store design, assets for social media, collection uploads etc. Basically all the tech stuff, marketing excluded.I realized that those needs are pretty much the same for all...

Ask HN: eCommerce - Boutique VS Retailer

I'm about to work on a project for an high end fashion brand. We have to build the website to present the collections and ideally the eCommerce to sell them.I've been looking to a lot of fashion designer and brands websites and noticed that they all have the same style of eCommerce that to me look very "cheap" if you are a luxury brand.Let me explain better.Some doesn't have an online shop -...

Normally around 20, but I had much more. Then I've discovered One Tab - https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/onetab/chphlpgkkbo... - but actually I'm ending always with lots of tabs anyway!
Re:Bitcovery is Instagram for music. Thoughts? on Friday September 19, 2014 @06:04AM (#8339724)
Love the idea and how it looks but, I can't follow anyone if I don't invite friends? Looks like I can only invite via mail or text, no Facebook?

We're doing the Instagram for vinyl record lovers, give it a try! We're secretly online fixing the last things before the official launch - bit.ly/needle_appstore

Mmmm, I'm the only one that I don't get this thing? I'm redirected to a page in Wikipedia where it says that nothing exist about this
@ is used to mention users, so if we start typing @ it would return the users list and also the vinyl records list, too much data to filter
Yes that would be nice, but I was thinking of a character that is not "commonly" used while chatting, to avoid boring pop up while writing normal things

yea, true!
Re:Ask HN: After "@" and "#" it's time to add a new symbol? on Thursday July 10, 2014 @11:16AM (#8015232)
it is different than a link in the same way that @ will link to a user. The ~ will trigger the list of my object to share. You know when in Instagram you start typing @ it return the list of user you want to mention? Same goes with the ~ but it return the list of the object I've posted
Re:Ask HN: After "@" and "#" it's time to add a new symbol? on Thursday July 10, 2014 @11:13AM (#8015222)
thanks for the suggestion! =)

I forgot to say that Needle it's a mobile app, so it's complicated to use hyperlinks and other things.

I don't think is complex, I think is very usefull. A trigger to an object I want to share.

Think of Instagram, in a comment of an another user you want to show a pic you made of the same subject: Hey @user check my ~objectID looks similar

When the user start ~ Instagram will return the thumbnail of my pics, I can choose the one I want and bam I've created a direct link to one of my pics. Same goes for Twitter and other apps.

Sure there's other things to think about how it could work in Instagram but it could be an idea.

Re:Ask HN: After "@" and "#" it's time to add a new symbol? on Thursday July 10, 2014 @10:39AM (#8015102)
It actually create a link to a specific object, using #ragysh would show all the release that have this tag, not the specific one I want to show.
Re:Ask HN: After "@" and "#" it's time to add a new symbol? on Thursday July 10, 2014 @10:38AM (#8015098)
Ideally I was thinking to let user filter only through the album they have uploaded. This to avoid to filter thousands of vinyl records in our database.

About the same title I guess that a solution might be the one I've written to chton down here

Re:Ask HN: After "@" and "#" it's time to add a new symbol? on Thursday July 10, 2014 @10:35AM (#8015085)
yea it's tru that you actually lose the actual name, however when the user click it will see the real title. Let's say that it could be a shortcut.

A good "workaround" might be that the ~ trigger the list of album in my collection (for example ~r filter the album title that start with r) once I click the album I want in the comment will appear the full clickable title so: Todd Terje - Ragysh
