I developed a pace calculator for runners ( http://pacecalculator.elsasslabs.com/ ). Mostly for my own needs, but hopefully someone else will find it useful !

I haven't tried it out just yet, but you should certainly keep working on it. Great idea!

#135I took the month off work and traveled around Japan, Chile, and Argentina. During my travels, I managed to do quite a bit of work on The Silver Searcher: https://github.com/ggreer/the_silver_searcher . It's a clone of ack[1], but written in C instead of Perl. I've done a decent amount of profiling[2] to find slow parts and improve the speed. For literal searches it uses a version of Boyer-Moore-Horspool strstr[3]. Fo…
Add ability to replace and I'm your fan. :) Until then I'm using my own http://github.com/piranha/goreplace (built in March a year ago :)).

The site is still raw but I decided to put it up to get feedback. It's a file marketplace mixed with a referral system. I think people should be rewarded for sharing.

#137Built a Ruby-based web app skeleton for Heroku [1] and then built another for Python [2].
Followed that up by making a ticket sales web app using the SeatGeek affiliate API and my Python app skeleton [3]. I also demoed [2] and [3] to the Memphis Python user group [4].
I apologize for the javascript failure on Tickets of Memphis, it seems the SeatGeek API has stopped accepting my jQuery JSONP requests so I have a ticket in.

#139Earlier quoted context omitted.
You might want to look into your permalinks (/about/about,...).
Where do you see a problem? The repeat of "about" in this specific URL? Thanks.
Everything starts with /about/: wookmark.com/about/contact, ..
Did you intend this? On the main page you've hidden all the stuff like contact, help, about, etc. behind 'About' link. I understand this. I think you dont have to follow with this pattern and 'hide' all pages 'behind' /about/ in link structure. Made me unnecessary thinking about it.

#140Virtual dog fighting - http://PuppyShowdown.com - OK, more like puppy pillow fighting. It's still rough around the edges and buggy, but I should have an update ready tonight or tomorrow to smooth things out.
I really wanted to use it, but I gave up as soon as soon as I realized that Facebook is the only way to log in. Not everyone will trust your website, and requiring Facebook limits the number of users you will receive.
