o_O word!! This is what you call half-baked? /me signs up and begins using it immediately

cool. would love feedback. we haven't really 'launched' it yet as we've just too busy on other projects, and for instance when you do google analytics integration you can end up with WAY too many keywords and some weird behavior on the dashboard page...

Well - feedback so far is: I signed up and setup a profile/keywords etc. in under 2 minutes. I'll email you when I start getting information in my inbox :)

Half baked (it currently mostly works): http://github.com/stucchio/Idli

An attempt to make bug reporting more git-like, in terms of UI. Use the command line (not a browser) to file bug reports. Currently interfaces with github and trac, bugzilla support is next.

1/10 baked (command line part not yet written): http://github.com/stucchio/Sqlite-Diff

It will be exactly sounds like, a diff utility for sqlite databases. It's something I've wanted on a number of occasions, but had to hack around. Currently I compare table headers, not table contents yet. (Currently it's only a library and some tests.)

http://www.crushtease.com Anonymous matching site with a twist.

This is cool - and kids will love it. I don't get the "50%" thing though - why complicate this any further?! I mean I know I'm FARRRR far far from being the target market here - but it just seems to make no sense to me and doesn't add anything to the usefulness of the program.

I wanted to be able to see products on Amazon side-by-side with their pros and cons: http://silvos.com . I need to add more products, product specs, and fix the way the pros/cons work, but I'm already using it to start thinking about which digital camera to get.

Interesting idea - in a similar space to my startup http://www.happybuy.com/ It may be good if the site was able to, based upon the metadata and extraction from the product description, show the relative differences in the specs of the products. For instance, if I compare a Macbook 13" and a Macbook Pro 15" it would be great if it listed all of the differences - such as screen size: 2", price: $300, speed: 0.4Ghz, we…

That's a great point -- currently, I'm in the process of scraping specs from other sites, and I really like your idea of putting a layer of understanding over that to simplify the display for the user.

Kind of like Google Squared, but easier to generate the table.

A service that has no backend (no server calls, DB, 'scary' stuff to consumers) that lets you back up your tweets on your own terms. Basically gives you ownership of things you write, without relying on any third party to access, store, or send you your own writing. Eventually will be given out as a folder with some .js and .html files, all self contained.
