Hi HNers - I posted the below explanation to GitHub but I'm reposting it below as well in case you don't see it:<p><i>I originally did this project as a Mac app that I was intending to sell but unfortunately it didn't take off the way I'd hoped. When Apple rejected it from the Mac App Store for depending on Dropbox that was the final nail in the coffin and I had to abandon it and move onto other projects. I'm now open sourcing it and making it free - mostly because I'm still using it and don't want it to die. Others have emailed me and asked if I would consider open sourcing it. So here we are.</i><p>Let me know if you have questions. I'd love to have some help improving the app.
I use this app literally every day, it was absolutely worth the $6 or whatever I paid for it at the time. It's a shame it didn't work out for you financially, but I think this is still a great app.<p>It really just makes sharing webpages and files totally seamless, but it's not as disruptive as texting, as noisy as facebook or twitter, and it doesn't flood your email inbox. Also, I know exactly who is getting what, it all lives in my Dropbox account, and the file format is totally transparent so I am able to do whatever I want with my data.<p>I am excited to take a look at the code. A friend and I were actually already working on a simple mobile app because we use this so often--now with access to the code things should go a lot faster.
I have used you app and works great for me and my coworker. I was waiting for the realease of other plataform versions, that would be great. Think about linux and windows. Maybe now with the open source someone can do that.
Thanks great idea.
I have folders with a few different groups of friends for sharing music and web links. Really a great tool - I'm sorry it didn't work out commercially, but I am so excited to see this open sourced!
