Admittedly, I have not done a ton of research into the different apps on the market, but there are a lot of crappy apps. From what I have seen though, there are plenty with annoying advertisements, absurd permission requests, steep prices for little functionality, and apps with an agenda. There is an app that plays a sound file on loop for 30 minutes and prompts you to purchase for indefinite looping for $3.99. There is literally no other functionality, and they want $3.99. Devs gotta eat, but that's ridiculous.

1. A better wiki, especially for personal use or for small teams. I find wikis are really difficult to keep organized over time, so I'm making it "self-organize" using a few simple heuristics to define structure and relevance.

2. A podcast in which I interview local business leaders. I don't live in a big city, and the tech scene here is not very mature, but there is a lot to learn from brick-and-mortar folks and this is a neat way for me to meet them.

If anyone is curious about either, please don't hesitate to contact me! (Email in profile.)

I even dogfood the service in the source code:

	 (function (m,a,c,k,i,n,g) {
     m['GoogleAnalyticsObject'] = i;
     m[i] = m[i] || function () {
         (m[i].q = m[i].q || []).push(arguments)
     }, m[i].l = 1 * new Date();
     n = a.createElement(c),
     g = a.getElementsByTagName(c)[0];
     n.async = 1;
     n.src = k;
     g.parentNode.insertBefore(n, g)
     })(window, document, 'script', '//www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js', 'ga');
     ga('create', 'UA-66070213-3', 'auto');
     ga('send', 'pageview');

The goal is to make it the easiest way to save receipts. No app to install, no complicated expense report forms to fill out, just take a picture of the receipt with your phone camera, email it to our specially-trained robots, and it gets saved and sorted for you for later.

Edit: Never mind, I thought this worked using OCR. It's still a cool service, but I wrote this comment under that assumption, so unfortunately I'm a little less excited about it.

Even just the total would be awesome. I don't mind entering metadata manually, and looking through a picture of the receipt for each line item if I need to do that, but I've love it to automatically capture the total so I can see those at a glance without manually inputting them. Maybe the date, too, but that's less important if I can just take the photo as soon as I get the receipt. (Getting the vendor would be doubly awesome, but I know that would be nearly impossible, so I wouldn't ever expect that.)

I wrote a web app to do this for myself when I was contracting, but I had to manually enter the vendor, total amount, and date for each receipt, which got really tedious. (The process wasn't fast enough that I would do it on the move, so I saved up receipts and did them in batches, which took a lot of time.) I'd love to just be able to take a picture and enter some metadata (probably just vendor and category) and have at least the total be pulled from the receipt, and the date either pulled or defaulted to today's date.

Yes, please let me know if you ever implement OCR! And feel free to contact me directly in general. My email is sasha1rus@gmail.com. In the meantime, I'm going to give this a try as-is. Thank you!

then i have a ruby script which connect to the imap account, creates reports based on sender and tags, including attachments in the breakdown. Simple and effective.

1. Quoddy[2] - An Enterprise Social Network that uses Semantic Web technology to automatically detect entities in content, and enhance the content and show related content. And much, much more. It's an ESN that is really meant to integrate with other enterprise applications and business events, as opposed to being a simple "facebook clone" dropped inside an organization. We just added OpenMeetings integration so you get audio/video chat and whiteboarding as well.

2. Neddick[3] - Think "Reddit for the Enterprise", but with a lot of features that aren't in Reddit.

3. Some other stuff, but those two are where the bulk of the focus is right now. :-)

Tech related:

http://www.freecodecamp.com/ Because I never felt that comfortable with web development. The interface is super easy to use and I can't wait to start helping non-profits.

Non tech related: Write. I write and I write and I write. I have so much to say and I want to say it in the best way possible.

Also draw. I don't draw as much as I should because I am so bad at it. But sometimes things with terrible art can still take off so it keeps me going. example: https://twitter.com/KeLuKeLuGames/status/553404094958694400/...

Unfortunately, after approaching and talking to dozens of nonprofits, we gave up. The Boards of NPOs tend to be highly egotistical, highly possessive morons. I can't tell you how many times we weren't allowed to fix an awful website because it had been a Board member's pet project done by one of their friends or relatives. Or, in many cases, the Managing Director just wouldn't give up control.

I hope you have better luck. I've now worked with two industries I'll never work with again -- restaurants and nonprofits.

http://www.freecodecamp.com/nonprofits/directory

When we actually did projects, they would accept the work, semi-cooperate, and then bury the finished product because the Board wouldn't approve it.

Even if we didn't have someone hovering over the project, trying to micromanage it, we always ended up with a committee-based feedback system. No matter what we did, someone would hate some part of it and demand it be changed.

Working on making Space Invaders in C++/SDL. Since the last thread i've added vector motion (with terrible "physics"), sound, gotten enemy fire to work and a basic game state running. Currently i'm working on string rendering and UI so I can have buttons, then the first game state transitions (title screen to play screen.)

Also, a threaded forum which is turning out to be an anonymous Hacker News clone in PHP: https://imgur.com/Yojr7Dv (I'm not actually calling it Slacker News though, I just thought it was funny.)

The second stage will be to pre-order the food from a Supermarket API, so all the food will already be in your house.

If I can figure out how to make an app that actually cooks my food, I'm done :)

The context is that we have a big hall room and we wanted to play songs from anywhere in the house without being connected to the speaker. Of course, we decided against buying a bluetooth speaker and create something of our own !

Check out the source here -https://github.com/agnivade/youremote. Its built with React + material design UI + golang.

Members can propose an album, article or gallery based on a theme/description. Anyone can fund that proposed release, and should if they like the idea and want to see people participate. Any member can submit content to a proposed release. Members can vote on which submissions are the best. Once a deadline is reached, the highest voted content is published. All funds are distributed to the winning content creators. Ownership tokens are created and distributed to all participants.

I actually have too much functionality planned - so much is possible once you have a dedicated app for this stuff, I need to scope it down for version 1.

How do you plan on solving the "showing of your work" part, linking to github or some more generic solution not depending on a specific service?

Maybe get rid of "toy" as a qualifier? What does that actually, specifically mean, as far as the terms of service are concerned?

Also, posting Github repo data using their API would be a really nice feature to see.

I just launched it for fun, and have had fun working on it. The list has grown to more than 5000 subscribers, which is pretty cool.

Not totally sure what I plan to do with it, but I really enjoy working on it and have found lots of people who like it, so that's good enough for now. :)

Trying to make a profitable predictor for the English Premier league. Currently, the predictor is profitable on the whole season, but not on the weekly basis.

I've train it on data from the 1992/1993 to 2011/2012 season, and tested it on the 2012/2013, 2013/2014, and 2014/2015 season. In tests, it shows profitability from 4.12 to 8.40%.

It's meant to be a joke and to have something of mine I can actually throw up on github, but I plan on making it actually work anyway, just out of curiosity.

The idea is that for each contact you can connect them to events and connect those events to locations. This way you can pivot off any piece of information about an acquaintance (where you met, when you met, etc.) to recall the details you know about them.

I'm looking for beta testers, so if you're interested, sign up on the website.

https://svenskpeng.nu/ (in Swedish) if it catches on I'll extend it to other currencies.

And there is some degree of variation between different sources, for example this is the NOKSEK exchange rate from yahoo.

http://query.yahooapis.com/v1/public/yql?q=select%20*%20from...

And since the variations between sources is limited I believe that getting a rough idea of the rate (which differs from bank to bank as well) Is beneficial especially in currencies like NOKSEK where the difference can vary between 0-10%

it's messageboards for github projects.

mainly because a lot of projects use live chat (gitter, slack), which i think isn't always the best solution (time zones, discoverability of past discussions, ...).

It's a cloud-based podcast aggregator with a focus on discovery and social aspects (e.g. seeing what your friends are listening to, commenting on podcast episodes, sharing clips, etc.).

it would be silly to track things inside a refrigerator, but we could track purchases on receipts, and then calculate the amount over time using some smart-decay-rate. Cant assume it's gonna be easy to be able to live query the contents of someone fridge in real time - but can do estimations. Then people could add their recipes to a central server, and well, you've pretty much coded everything after that if I get your gist.
