Of note: we (Fictive Kin, fictivekin.com) created Gimme Bar. We also created LeakedIn (leakedin.org) which is currently sharing the front page.

Thanks for the busy two days of dev-ops scrambling, friends. (-:

Let's try to keep DDoSing to a lower level than yesterday, though, please. (-:

Congrats!

Many years ago I worked on a similar idea: first a desktop archiver called Dowser, and an online app called Archivd.

If you don't have enough to do (heh) one killer feature is to extract semi-structured data: email addresses, physical addresses, phone numbers, prices, photos, Facebook "og" metadata, etc. Imagine saving a bunch of apartment listings to GimmeBar, and having it automatically plot them on a map of the city.

Good luck!


We actually have some stuff in place to do things like that.

It's currently limited in scope to things like recipes and a few other things, but it's very much on our radar as being useful.


Damn it, guys, this is very close to the idea I've been working on for a few weeks. Now I'm going to have to go back to the drawing board :)

But at least you have a well-documented API, so maybe I can build something on top of Gimme Bar. Anyway, looks great and can't wait to try it out


Incidentally, good on you guys for the Spanish translation.
