Application Error: http://cl.ly/1c393d1e451x0P000s2h Nodefail? A writeup somewhere about what you went through to build this, as well as your team's background and previous experience would be cool.

Yeah - thanks for pointing that out. We're pitching in 45 minutes, but will aim to get some posts up describing our experience.

You can check http://blog.pipeapp.co (we need to connect it to the live app still so there's links between, but I've been posting about our experience) for the time being.

Thanks for asking!

You posted to HN before your pitch? Did you need the site live to pitch? Isn't that risky?

...unless you needed HN traffic for that voting link, then it makes sense I guess ;)

The singly hackathon has been a blast. I'm on the Pipe team and am happy to answer any questions you have about our experience and what we built.

there is no error message if I click on "Ok, I'm done!" without pull-in any contacts

It seems to be quite a bit more stable.... found and fixed the main bug that was causing it to crash.

It doesn't work for me. The screen that should be showing my contacts is blank. Tried reloading, skipping. No fez.

So currently what we didn't make clear (and will fix soon) is that you need to be signed in with LinkedIn in order for it to populate. Our apologies!
