Just sharing my side/art project .It's the weather, and reactions to it in GIFs!
Some beautiful GIFs from some great artists, and a few pop culture reactions I thought were funny. Each GIF is in reaction to the current, and forecasted weather. You'll get a different reaction each time! I put in some Easter Eggs too! Works on both desktop and a Smartphone. Thanks for looking/feedback!
We use the analogy it's like Show & Tell from Kindergarten but it's a Show & Tell for new products. It puts the emphasis just as much on the creator, as it does on what you're sharing, and you can link to demos.
It's work in progress, but in the app you can subscribe to get updates on new features as we release them. We used to share news this way with our own users of our iPhone games, and thought it would be a viable platform for others to Show & Tell what they are working on.
We're building a platform to Show & Tell for makers and developers. It's not meant to replace Show HN, but re-imagines the experience on a smartphone. The idea is that Demo Day is Every Day. We put out a prototype to see how people use it, and now tailoring the experience for makers this summer http://tipcast.com/makers
I think it's a good side project, but don't bet your life savings on a donation-based business model. Hope is not a good business strategy ;)
Wonder if you could mine Bitcoin based on how much content is consumed for free (i.e. The more they stream movies, the more you can generate for yourself and the content creator/publisher). Just thinking out loud.
That's a great idea. You should turn it into a messaging app. Use Spotify's API to get access to tracks, pick a GIF and and then send the gif with the music to a friend. Go back and forth!
It's fast, but I agree you need to add "top" lists. People don't really know what to search for when it comes to movies, they just want someone to tell them what's good/popular. You should curate lists like "Top Action Movies", and then have the search tool as a side feature.
