Great App! I can't figure out how to Zoom in/out or enlarge the map view. I often map 60-100 mile routes so the ability to zoom in to see the roads selected.

#33What were the coding steps you took? as too what did you learn first and etc.

#34Here's my blog post on our launch: http://spencerfry.com/introducing-uncover
Congrats for launching! Smart idea and certainly solves an existing problem. Would love to read more about your pathway towards the launch, e.g. how your coding came along, etc.
Me too! I am currently learning to code to (re)launch my startup!
But I am on the struggle, "is this worthy", full of doubts stage. I hope I can learn a thing or two from you...

#35Great job! Looking back, you'll see that learning to code was one of the best decisions you made. One minor thing - it took me about 7-10 seconds to understand what your product is. I should be able to understand within 2 seconds. You should put in big letters towards the top: "Employee Recognition Program" or something a little more sales-y.
I agree, at first I thought it was a service that taught you how to roll sushi. It wasn't until I read other bits of information spread out on your page that I started to figure it out.

#36I really like the idea for this company. Seems cools. In the true spirit of "Show HN" though, how about sharing some code?
You got it wrong: you should be providing feedback
Re: Show HN: I learned to code to launch my new startup
#37Nice job! Did you learn to code on both the front and back end?

I got it pretty quick, but it never hurts to test, test, test!

#39Any non-startup or non-online clients?

That's good feedback. Definitely continuing to improve the message.
By the way, great URL. I'm sure you paid a pretty penny for it:)
I actually bought it back in 2006-7. I was working on a local reviews site for a few months before working on Carbonmade, which was my last startup before Uncover.
