Also forgot to mention that you can download an android app from play store. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.premii.hn

The UI performance for your web app is impressive. Did you use any other libraries besides fastclick? Or was it a lot of manual work and research to make the UI perform well?
+1. I don't know what are your plans with this app, but I would love to learn more about how you did that. Do you plan to open-source it?
