I know I'm overreplying to stuff you're saying, so I apologize for adding noise to your threads, but how did you guys all coordinate the hacker house? And how has that worked out for you guys, versus the people who've looked for apartments, both financially and socially?
John and I organized Hacker House. It was a little nerve racking as the rent was $4.5k split between us. Thankfully, the place filled up quickly. There's 4.5 rooms and 9 people sleeping here tonight. It's a little cheaper than a regular place (we're paying $500-$900 per person).
Socially: I love it. There's almost always someone coding in the main area, 24hrs / day. Also, there's always someone to go to University Ave with and grab something to eat.
We're actually moving the place up to SF in May. If anyone's interested, send me an email: sam / at / odio / dot / com.
Divvyshot is the only way everyone in a group can easily upload hundreds of photos to one place. There are competing products such as MobileMe and Troovi, but they aren't easy or free.
Once we figure out a way to communicate that in 5 words, we'll put that up there instead.
Suggestion to the Divvyshot team - slideshow mode.
I'm eating some pasta, and I'd enjoy looking through these photos while eating, without having to press the arrow keys to navigate. So have a "play" mode which goes through a set of photos automatically, with X seconds between photos.
(I mean, it's also cool seeing the various demos, obviously. But I like seeing the people who've made all this.)
EDIT: Also, after going through the gallery... DivvyShot trio, you guys make me smile.
