After the huge success [1] of SoundCloud Instant [2], I started working something else using the SoundCloud API. For the purpose of surprise, I'll just leave the screenshot here: http://i.imgur.com/PP4LN2J.jpg The prototype is ready and it does what it's supposed to, but it's not ready to be released yet. If you'd like to know when it's ready, you can join my (new) email list: http://eepurl.com/SRIPT [1] https://twit…

Do you know if there is a Pandora like app for SoundCloud music. Where you can create "radio stations" from SoundCloud artist then plays similar sounding music from SoundCloud.

No I'm not aware of any. Though it's not hard to build something like that (in theory).

I've been working on https://thesquatrack.com/ It does workout, nutrition, and body measurement tracking and I'm in the midst of deploying the routines and meta-routines - https://thesquatrack.com/soon over the next few weeks. * Better search result info - http://i.imgur.com/RassIwF.png * Flexible nutrition goals - http://i.imgur.com/8dabrHg.png * Some meal fast logging - http://i.imgur.com/PdOBm0U.png * Improved the…

This looks great. I tried Fitocracy and was disappointed. It seemed to be focused on a flashy interface rather than useful features. I signed up for your mailing list. I especially like the ability to see moving averages. Up until now, I have been using spreadsheets for this kind of thing. That works fine for charting, but not much else.

Historical archives! http://i.imgur.com/RsB99dN.png that's one thing that's always kept me off of services, not being able to export my workouts, so I made sure you can do it in CSV, Markdown, and bbCode (individual, date ranges, and all workouts).

I'm working on a web-app which starts like a feature-rich to-do list app, but shifts the focus towards planning out larger life goals, and tracking progress: http://imgur.com/a/tSPHP In particular this week, I've been working on solidifying the quantification side of the app (see the first two screenshots) - i.e. making day-to-day productivity (and lack of productivity!) towards big goals something that's measurable…

Just wanted to reply - I just signed up and started working with it ... this is the power / analytics of a todo app that I've been wanting, well done! I'll send some feedback through the contact form once I play with it a little more.

Awesome, thanks! I need to do a better job of getting that message across on the landing page. Looking forward to hearing your feedback!

http://i.imgur.com/PnmDT5z.png I have had some time off this week so decided to work on something a bit different. I have been working on a concept fuzzing framework for security testing. In the screenshot you can see some of the files produced by it - The bottom right is the configuration used to generate the file format (for this case Bitmap, although I have tested a few others like WAV) Bottom left is a bitmap pro…

Neat. Have you found any bugs with it yet? Any sense of where you're going to take it?

I love the idea, didn't see last week's but I'll join in today. Currently working on a project known as Senescere, latin for 'to grow old'. Before working in HVAC optimization, for grad school I was a research assistant to a face recognition laboratory that specialized in digitally aging the face based on statistical data such as race/age/gender. Recently, our system was used by Allure magazine to get the opinions of…

Oh wow that is awesome, the makeup idea is especially solid. Even if you don't end up partnering with a large company, hobbyists and door to door salesmen/women would be a possible market. More and more of them are already using things like Square in their purchase processes, I imagine having an app on hand to transform clientele beforehand would be pretty enticing.

Yup! My thought process is to have a standalone system installed at cosmetic kiosks in malls. Then, you're not wasting product on someone that doesn't buy, and if someone does want to buy, you've already got a list of products they've tried you can ring them up for.

Payment-wise, I'm going with Stripe, but also going to be adding Paypal into the fold tomorrow.

I want to steer away from the app market since its already overwhelmed with AgeBooth and the like. We're marketing this as more than just slapping a Photoshop filter on your face (ala AgeBooth).

Earlier quoted context omitted.

I've been playing around with this concept for a couple of years (never having executed) and was expecting to be disappointed but this is very thoughtfully executed. I only wish this was open source :)

I can imagine, my need for it as a personal tool was strong enough that I just couldn't resists building it haha, it evolved quite a bit further than I expected though. Could I ask why you'd have hoped for open source? If it's any consolation, I'm making the API completely open, and I'd have no problem with custom clients. In fact, I may even consider open-sourcing the default web-app client. But as for running it as…

Single founders have a very high bus factor, and for any other reason that you decide not to continue supporting the product, there's some insurance for people who invest a lot of time and data in the product as early adopters if the source lives somewhere. I think you should make money for your work. I don't have time to research now, but I'd bet there's a boilerplate license that would protect your work while allowing other developers to contribute and install for personal use only.

In lieu of all of that, I'd like to be able to export my data at a minimum. It sounds like the API would let me do that though.

One small, unrelated suggestion: set up something like UserVoice to take bug reports and other feedback from users. I may have missed an existing feedback channel if it exists.

Thanks for all your hard work on this. It's one of the best products I've used in a while.

Nothing really fancy like other people here. I'm making an admin template based on bootstrap. It's my first attempt at it and I plan to sell it on wrapbootstrap/themeforest (if they find it good enough for their marketplace). http://i.imgur.com/Q12ACJu.png http://i.imgur.com/7gqyQiN.png http://i.imgur.com/sEVu6lG.png

Love the design. What are you using to make your graphs?

Just wanted to say that the time, effort and thought you have put in this project is a very apparent once you spend a few minutes poking through the UI. Excellent execution.

I like how as a new user, you get to start 'simply' (no trackers or readings or due dates or targets) and the UI is not overwhelming and add those things as/when you need them.

The dexterity of the application is not obvious when you see /use it for the first time (I think this is a 'good' thing in that you have managed to successfully keep the UI 'simple' while providing all the bells and whistles for when needed)

Great job, keep it up, this looks helpful and I'll probably be using it.
