I've been building a program that plays Yahoo! Fantasy sports. http://fantasybots.com . It updates your roster every morning in case you forget or have too many teams to keep track of. Also great when you only care about the draft party and don't want the grind of actually coaching. Currently looking for beta testers!

I'm game for beta testing it.

Socialite - For keeping track of contacts: https://socialite.ooo/

The idea is that for each contact you can connect them to events and connect those events to locations. This way you can pivot off any piece of information about an acquaintance (where you met, when you met, etc.) to recall the details you know about them.

A few months ago I launched an email newsletter that features one fantastic piece of journalism each day: http://readthisthing.com/

I just launched it for fun, and have had fun working on it. The list has grown to more than 5000 subscribers, which is pretty cool.

Not totally sure what I plan to do with it, but I really enjoy working on it and have found lots of people who like it, so that's good enough for now. :)

Meal Planning Recommendations - suggests what you should eat this week.

The second stage will be to pre-order the food from a Supermarket API, so all the food will already be in your house.

If I can figure out how to make an app that actually cooks my food, I'm done :)

I'm working on a receipt-saving service for small businesses/freelancers: https://receiptron.com/

The goal is to make it the easiest way to save receipts. No app to install, no complicated expense report forms to fill out, just take a picture of the receipt with your phone camera, email it to our specially-trained robots, and it gets saved and sorted for you for later.
