I thought that this was going to be a link to buy physical HN magnets. This turned out to be much cooler but, if they were available, I would also buy this for my fridge.

Someone is going to work out how to monetize this and make millions. Surprisingly entertaining.

Show HN: My MVP bought 9000 dogs a t-shirt!<p>This makes a nice second monitor screensaver if you have the screen space.

That was surprisingly more entertaining than I had anticipated.

That was brilliant. It took a while before I could see any that were 'improvised' words. "They took are (steve)jobs" with 'are' covering 'steve'.<p>I am actually surprised with how well it all worked. Other than obvious cases of people just seeing how annoying they could be in general you could get a sentence going with input from others.<p>Gonna bookmark this so I can come back to play later.

I don't like how they randomly all go back into the circle.

Suggestion: Could you include an 's' magnet?<p>Magnet sets never have them, but they are useful for turning a verb from the plural form into the singular ("downvote"), and vice-versa for nouns.

Must be broken. I can't find the "Haskell" magnet.

I can hardly wait until the tech is ready for me to buy these fridge magnets, and people all around the world can move them on my fridge!

Awesome idea. The Firebase guys keep making really interesting ways to use realtime data.

I really need to get back to work. I'm sorry for messing with the game... (Did you notice how the magnets were just zipping out from where you put them and into the center, randomly offset, or into a formed circle? That was me. Sorry!)

Two cool ones:<p><a href="http://i.imgur.com/86rjhY4.png" rel="nofollow">http://i.imgur.com/86rjhY4.png</a><p><a href="http://i.imgur.com/Hfh4Vt9.png" rel="nofollow">http://i.imgur.com/Hfh4Vt9.png</a>

It looks like there's some sort of registration issue going on; some people stack their magnets so they overlap from my point of view but others are arranged neatly or spaced out.

Now it's turning into warring scripts :) The first trick is to grab a reference to the refrigerator. Just put a breakpoint in the dom ready function in main.js, and set a global variable.

It was pretty cool watching the hivemind create live. I'm surprised by how ordered it was. Any way to show how many users are in there?

This is probably going to hit critical mass real soon, and there will just be too many peeps moving shit around.. But dang is it fun.

The process was revolutionized when I realized that I could search.

My magnets keep drifting away while I try to position them.

Whole new way to interact with others, interesting idea.

small bug, when you move 2+ word elements to the right edge they get pushed to two lines.<p>edit: at least, it seemed to be happening a minute ago.
