Question in title. I'm starting a evaluating a new opportunity and looking to boost my user interviews. Have people tried using https://www.userinterviews.com/ what do you think of it?

I'd actually add that it was about user engagement (there is a huge overlap in whatsapp users and facebook users). WhatsApp has far more daily usage than even Facebook boosts, and this was the initial statistic that Facebook was able to point to as validation at it's inception.

I'd like to help a fellow hacker in need! We have a project that could use some django expertise. I'd love to see some of your work first though, mind sending it my way? My email is in my profile.

Do you mind if others contact you as well? I might be looking for Django work soon.

Also, the "email" section of HN profiles is private, so if you want other people to see your email put it in the "about" section.

EDIT: Soon as in "a couple weeks from now". Not trying to compete with the OP.

Used to work in International Dev for a ecom company, and India was a serious target. We ended up going elsewhere because of delivery infrastructure and local competitors, that free delivery is going to be a huge advantage.

Beautiful interface! I actually was throwing around the idea of an audio only Youtube player, can is there a way to toggle the video?

Audio only Youtube player is against the Youtube terms of service. You have to display the video at a certain minimum size.

A friend of mine made something similar to this, but audio only, and - if I remember correctly - got a cease and desist. (Or, at least, he got some kind of "you're in breach of terms of service, cut it out" message, which freaked him out and prompted him to take the project offline).

I'm just speculating out loud here...

They can mandate a minimum playback size, but do they mandate a minimum playback fps?

If you played the video back at a rate of 1/60fps (dropping all intermediate frames) would that satisfy their requirements and still save battery life or whatever for the people who would prefer not to see any video at all?

Just make it simple. Give users the ability to toggle the video display. That shouldn't violate any agreements.

Yes, I can see how it would annoy some content creators too. I'll check out the TOS for sure, thanks.

That would be good... I wonder if it's possible to remove the video entirely, as opposed to just hiding it - would be really useful when I listen to music on Youtube on battery power on my laptop!

Yes, I think so, but I'll look into it and get back to you.

Should be, there was a similar kind of app online for a while at jukeboxfor.me. There you only played music from youtube, no video.

I like the idea, but there absolutely has to be some sort of indicator that you're interested in recording this convo (and the less invasive the better). How about linking it to calendar events, and/or locations? Facial rec could be an indicator for recording when you hit Glass integration.

Looks like they're headed to the Knowledge Graph team, but I'd like to see some love for the news division, especially from NLP badasses like Wavii.

Since Knowledge graph is a team, not a division that may actually be the case since it's possible the author actually meant "Google Knowledge", which is the catch all internal unit for all of Google's search-related products (of which News is a part).

I agree, the lack of an animated gif background is a relative sign of taste and restraint in the angelfire era.

I love this! Simple, and can create meaningful and lasting connections.

I am using it as a way to tell the story my sister and her fiancee, as I am officiating their wedding. I have been struggling with what to say for months, and finally, by assembling the family's stories here and using this as a framework, I am starting to make some headway.

Thank you Storyworth team, this is truly something meaningful and beautiful that you have created here.
