Working on a project in conjunction with the British Library to crowd source tagging for illustrations found in 19th Century Literature. And further down the line to provide descriptions of what the images actually are.
http://www.timmclean.net/json-editor/ A code editor that uses knowledge of a programming language's grammar. It's cool because it should be significantly more efficient than working in vim/emacs, and will allow powerful scripting capabilities and macros to transform code structurally, instead of as text.
This thread needs more hardware. I'm making bike lights. First a little story. I was late to class one day in March, pothole season. I was cruising in the drops, when I came up to a T intersection. A van pulls up, and stops at the stop sign. As I approach the intersection, I see a pothole, swerve to avoid the hole, and the van pulls forward. I have about 1 second before I hit the van, land with my back on the hood, s…
Why not try and make a kickstarter campaign? - You have a working prototype. - You have a problem where there is a real need for a solution. - People on this thread are interested. Now you just need to interview a few people who cycle around, show off your gizmo and make it part of the video on your kickstarter page ;)

Whoa, this sounds really awesome! Are you keeping updates on your progress anywhere? I commute every day, and I'd love to have something like this.
Or maybe you'll see it on kickstarter one day :)
I've been slowly working on a few things, and hopefully can finish them during the winter: 1) Shared Places The idea is that you can have public or private lists of locations that can be shared with other people, and would be integrated with mapping software on your phone so it is easy to navigate to them. Some private lists that may be useful: a) A family one that keeps track of extended relatives, friends houses, s…

dig the simplicity and saving seems useful. any plans to let a user tag the location and maybe get their history via json.
Thanks, glad you're digging it. Yes, I want to have a simple, powerful tagging interface for providing more context. Getting data out via JSON is easy, just have to build a secure API endpoint.
Because conventional file-system is being replaced with Cloud storage and so should your downloader.
A biodiverse, edible forest garden in the center of an public high school. We are breaking ground with a team of students in about an hour. This is (very) cool because it will expose adolescents to a variety of concepts, perspectives, and phenomena that are severely lacking from most urbanized places.

How do you implement it in browser?
It's server-side. There's a record for each page/component in a database where the JSON is stored. It converts the "criteria" part into SQL, and the "options" part into HTML, and returns the resulting HTML for each component.

It is cool because:
* it reduces the time to market of backend applications and makes it extremely easy to deploy with just one button.
* It uses an uncool (uncool in HN) language (C#) to create very cool and amazingly easy functionality in the cloud.
* apps scale automatically with you knowing anything about Capacity planning or scaling.
* You can store your data internally with an easy to use interface.
* Mind blowingly easy to use task Scheduling.
