Can it do code markup? I was looking for something the other day and I didn't want to set up my own 'blog'. Tumblr couldn't support Github gists for some reason, so really that' all you need. Edit: On first glance, it doesn't seem to be able to embed Github gists. Darn.
It used to be you wrote a blog. Then you started using Twitter as a toy. Then you linked to blog posts on Twitter. Then you got lazy about updating your blog (i.e. Robert Scoble). Then you used only Twitter. Then you realized occasionally you want to say more than you can Tweet. Then.. Voila!
Earlier quoted context omitted.
The video won't play in my Android by the way. How about that blurb? ;)
Eek. It's supposed to be WebM-friendly. I'll see what I can do. Meanwhile, I've posted a blurb.
Flowplayer is really good by the way, check out http://j.mp/NBFTze if you're interested.
1.) The screenshot of the prolifi.cc landing page has the large black coming soon banner.
2.) At the point where you show the creation of a blog post, I think the left pane with all the markdown instructions is so visually distracting. Perhaps the video can just focus only the right pane...
I really liked the fact that you stated "you don't have a blog and you don't need one.." I think that really reinforces the concept and value of your product.
Just my $0.02.
What's the tech stack for this, if you don't mind me asking?
Rails on Passenger on nginx, omniauth for Twitter authentication, redcarpet for Markdown support.
Also, would be cool, if you decided at some point to open-source it or unless you went the startup route, and end up monetizing the hell out of it. Then again, making money and open-sourcing are not mutually exclusive, methinks...
It's nice, but don't get why it should be able to * Read Tweets from my timeline. * See who I follow, and follow new people. * Update my profile. so, not registering, sry...
Twitter has three permission levels: Read Only, Read and Write, and Read, Write, and Direct Messages. In order to have it Tweet on your behalf it needs Read and Write permissions. Along with that comes all the other permissions. If I could exclude it I would.
