Working on Ghostnote which is a contextual notes & todo app. It allow you to add notes to Folders, Files, Applications, Documents open in applications and even URLs. Don't think there is anything like it out there. It will look kind of like this: http://grab.by/xJIG
Huh? That link shows a 404, and ghostnote.com seems to be a drum enthusiasts community.

#62People will also be able to run SiteBox on their own PCs to use as a personal wiki. Or to have offline backups of wikis on the net that can be easily resynced.
People will be able to collaboratively write a book using SiteBox. It will have version control, possibly using git with an easier user interface.
SiteBox will also have privacy-enabling features: people will be able to run it locally (on a PC or a Raspberry Pi) to communication using email and a collaborative wiki, and all communication over the net will be encrypted.

#63As a law firm we are only handling Florida, but as of now you can pay your tickets (traffic, parking, red light camera) or hire our firm to defend you. The future is much more interesting where we are seeking to become a niche search engine, whereas you will just take a picture of your ticket and the results will be attorney who practice on the jurisdiction filtered by their fee for that charge.

#65I'm working on a document-oriented database engine written purely in Python: BlitzDB! https://github.com/adewes/blitzdb My motivation was that I needed (wanted?) a pure-Python document database that does not have any dependencies (like pymongo) and provides querying capabilities similar to MongoDB. Currently, Blitz is under active development and comes with a file-based backend as well as a MongoDB backend. Contribut…

When this is used with a mongoDB backend, how much slower is it than just using pymongo?

#69Just as you would write an essay by repeatedly redrafting it, real-world maths problems often require as much effort be put into understanding and clarifying problems as are required to solve them. And yet existing maths programs assume you know the question and need only break it into a series of standard steps (integrate, solve etc.) and leave the details to the computer. When doing maths on paper, you learn to recognize fragments and how to move them around. The intuitions are quite different.
The user interface lets you add functions and symbols which can alternatively be written in plain text, e.g. "sin(\alpha)^2=sqrt(x)". Equations are viewed in conventional mathematics notion and are updated quickly and smoothly. Click-and-dragging equation fragments lets you solve or substitute for variables and - with practice - perform algebra by various keyboard shortcuts.
