Hey HN,<p>Just thought I'd show you guys something that I quickly threw together this weekend.<p>It's a webapp that for websites that suck on your iPhone/Android/mobile phone. Later Locker lets you email a link to the webpage to an email address and have it automatically appear on your computer. Sites like the <a href="http://nytimes.com" rel="nofollow">http://nytimes.com</a> or <a href="http://newegg.com" rel="nofollow">http://newegg.com</a> are kind of annoying to view in your mobile browser. So, you send a link to the webpage from your phone and automatically appears on your desktop!<p>Still really rough, but would love any feedback/suggestions you guys have!<p>Using mailgun for parsing!<p>- Benny
Open source alternative for Android/Chrome: <a href="http://www.2cloudproject.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.2cloudproject.com/</a><p>The experience is really nice because it uses the native Android 'share link' dialogue.
I'm a bit confused. By "magically appears on my computer", do you mean "open email and click link to open webpage in browser"? Or does it actually just open right away, somehow?
This is awesome! A simple idea, wonderfully executed.
Couple of features I'd like to see:
* An RSS/Atom/whatever feed of the articles, so they show up in my feed reader/Calibre
* The exact same thing in reverse; Often, I'd just like to boil the text off a web page and read it on my phone on the morning/evening train commute. This possibly changes the scope of your weekend hack to something a lot more complex..
I'd really like push support to the app, like the Handoff app, but in reverse. <a href="http://www.handoffapp.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.handoffapp.com/</a>
