I'm working on an online intake forms web app ( http://intakeq.com ). I built it initially for my wife, who's a nutritionist, but there are a few other people using it now.

Great idea and nice execution. How do you do HIPAA compliance, I hear it's not easy.

just recently launched a service that will let you create interactive dashboards (pivot charts) off of your excel files. Got a huge influx of beta sign ups from HN and ProductHunt.com.

This is very cool. Are you using D3 for data visualization? What is your stack?

An easy to use opinionated reporting system in django. https://github.com/gregpinero/django-mr_reports I'd love to get some feedback if anyone is interested.

Very nice, I need something like this for my current Django app. Not at this stage yet, but will definitely try it out once I get there. Thanks for building this!

An app for playing media on a Chromecast using AirPlay on an iOS device or Mac. It's currently an Android app, which presents an odd set of hardware requirements; hoping Google releases a Cast SDK for Mac sometime soon. First iteration is done and will be shipping soon.

My significant other and I are working on a new kind of wedding registry (a wish list for wedding gifts) in our spare time: https://wed.is It solves two big problems for us when we were looking at existing options: - They tend to look reallly old school or lack customization - If we chose a registry we were stuck with the products it had to offer

Looks great! A dev and designer make a powerful team :)

I've been writing the documentation for my neural net powered 3D Reconstruction WebAPI that creates lip sync'ing 3D avatars from a single photo: www.3d-avatar-store.com

Interesting--have you written up much about how you do it?

It's exposed as an API, so others can drive the process. If you're asking how the neural nets are trained, that's discussed in the power point hosted on our blog.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

You should put a picture of different trucks on your home page to drive to point "further" home. Excellent idea.

We're working on having a new photo taken for a redesign of the front page that is coming up. Different trucks is a neat idea. We toyed round with some ideas and ended up with just wanting a photo of people moving. Not sure what we'll go with yet but different trucks is cool since it tells you that we have variety!

If you don't mind me asking, how did you start getting 'movers' to join the platform? What kind of marketing did you do? And what about getting the word out to people?

I'm working on PhoneCard, a service to make cheap international phone calls without requiring a data connection. You enter the phone number in the webapp and it calls you. Next time you're using poor hotel wifi or you're frustrated with skype (e.g. multiple disconnects per hour), try PhoneCard for a high-quality call. PhoneCard can call most places in the world, and in some countries you can also purchase incoming nu…

I'm curious - do you use a single company for call termination, or have multiple routes to optimise the cost?
