A cute site. What it lacks in functionality it makes up for by being made by a woman. Pro-beginner-tip: Don't make social networks.

#12Nice! Technical question:
I type "Elmhurst, NY" and it converted it to "Elmhurst, Queens, NY 11373, USA", how did you do that? I'm looking to do something similar!

Well, you seem like an asshole. Pro-commenting-tip: Don't shit on people's accomplishments.

Oh cute. Condescension and sexism. The only thing this comment is missing is the classic HN trope "I almost built this, but didn't, but I'm just as accomplished as the person who did cause I almost did this."

Just curious, why do you say don't make social networks?

#16@jenniferDewalt, Great job on the site, I also found your original 180 websites inspirational. I was wondering if you could speak to the technology stack you used to create your site frontend/backend?

Instead I'll just join with you all in never-ending self-congratulatory ecstasy. Why aren't we all in Paradise?

Is your comment supposed to be sarcastic mockery of HN or are you being serious?

#19I really, really enjoyed the 180 websites posts. I checked this site out earlier (this week I believe?) when you shared it to HN and thought it was pretty slick. It was great to get a sort of post game review of this particular app, detailing your battles in the trenches with Backbone, Places API etc.
Really inspring stuff for anyone sitting around with the itch to throw a side project together on a rainy day. Respect.

For the same reason I don't leave my desk, buy a prospectors pan and head to San Francisco in a wagon looking for the Gold Rush. It's very easy to look up and realize all you've done is build a ghost town.
