Sourcegraph: Search code, jump around source, see real usage examples

Love the idea! I tried it by searching for Node's require. It did point me to the right source [1], but the usage examples are all minified and unreadable. Might want to check for a maximum size on the usage examples that are presented. [1] https://sourcegraph.com/github.com/joyent/node/.CommonJSPack...

Hope you have Haskell soon, I've wanted to do some analysis of occurrence of certain patterns.

None of us at Sourcegraph write Haskell, but if you know of anybody who would be interested in helping us add it (on a contract basis), please let me know! sqs at sourcegraph.com

Any plans on Clojure support?

One of the co-founders of Sourcegraph came to UC Berkeley and spoke at entrepreneurship event. He was very engaged and gave lots of real practical advice. I've tried Sourcegraph and think it solves a real pain point but I have had problems integrating it into my workflow. I'm not sure when I should be using it. I've been meaning to use it to read more open source code code but it seems like they recently disabled sup…

Wasn't there a sublime plugin for sourcegraph?

What I love about sourcegraph is that between it and github search/searchcode you can find pretty much every bit of code you need without resorting to Google. Big improvement to my workflow personally as I always have preferred to find an example first and the documentation second.
