Re:Show HN: Send Vintage Telegrams via Text on Friday March 17, 2017 @11:35AM (#13894752)
I had no idea you could still do this! That's awesome =) There are also a couple of companies that send printed telegrams by snail mail, though the one I tried (http://www.telegramstop.com/) didn't work.

I'm hoping Teletype makes the joy / novelty of vintage telegrams accessible to a wider audience.

Hi Pauline, your site looks great! The signup link is broken though - I think it should be https://app.hivyapp.com/signup.

I had the same reaction as bruceb. Maybe offer the initial evaluation as a separate service?

Nice site! I like the clean/uncluttered interface and the more traditional-looking aesthetic; it reminds me of the look and feel of a printed book =) This is very minor, but I noticed that there was no intuitive way to create a nested bulleted list on mobile (I tested using Chrome running on an iPhone 6). I also noticed that the submit button is not visible on mobile while the keyboard is up. Finally, I'm sure you have this on your radar screen already, but my biggest qualm though is that there isn't an obvious way to edit notes. Overall though I really like what you've done so far!

Great-looking site =) And a very timely service in the wake of the recent string of controversies at Uber and other tech companies!
