My team and I have been working on Lucidchart for a little while now. https://www.lucidchart.com It's an HTML5 diagramming and wireframing app. We've had some coverage but are still in the early stages in this billion dollar per year industry. Happy to set you up with an interview with one of our founders.

I like that you can try it without signing in.

So far...I love the startups guys. Will definetaly dig into most of them for writing a story.

Also it would be useful if you could add your twitter account in the comments!

Authic is a secure, brandable authentication service that provides nice authentication screens / flow for your web app, allowing you to concentrate on what makes your app unique.

http://Authic.com

Our MVP does all the standard authentication forms/functionality/ We also make it really easy to hookup social signin with a number of popular providers.

On our roadmap is functionality for group/role manangement and turning your app into a paid subscription service using stripe.

We've launched our closed beta and are looking for a few more beta user developers to get our MVP tight before a wider real launch.

p.s. Please excuse our marketing pages - they are attrocious :-(

Right now we are concentrating on pushing out functionality / changes as requested by our beta developers.

https://annotary.com It's a social bookmarking / annotation service for the web. Highlight web pages, take notes, share with colleagues and friends. We're just about to launch a collaboration toolset for businesses and organizations. Happy to chat more about it - my email is in my profile.

Pretty cool - seems similar to clipboard.com though

Really cool. I'd need to be running it to see notes that someone else has made on a web page?

Yeah, looks nice. One question: how does it differentiate from Diigo.com?

Thanks. The instant demo converts quite well. If you have a product where it makes sense to do it, I'd recommend it.

There's a significant segment that doesn't want to provide an email address just to try something quickly to see if ts the right fit.

Launched http://www.cameralends.com/ last weekend for peer to peer camera gear loaning. Not sure I'd call it a 'startup', but it's a service I'm actively working on and trying to grow.

That sounds really handy, but what happens if someone damages your lens?

Right now the lenders are friends of mine, and they understand that I will personally comp them if there is any damage. I realize that won't scale, but it doesn't need to yet -- I'll worry about it if/when it becomes a problem.

Still trying to figure out how to do this :) so any and all feedback is welcome!
