Hey HNI’ve been at a loose end for the past few days so I decided to build a thing. I’m largely devoid of original ideas so I built a (micro-) blogging app with a slight twist: you run it using email.All you need is an email account. No new tools to wrangle. No password to forget.Compose in your favourite email editor and send to a secret address. Pagecord does the rest.It's great for bloggy long-form writing, but it’s maybe even more fun for micro-blogging your thoughts as you would a Twitter feed (you can subscribe to people/blogs using RSS).I figured nobody would pay so it's entirely free (I do accept donations ).I put together a short video for the home page which shows it in action. There’s an FAQ at <a href="https://pagecord.com/faq" rel="nofollow">https://pagecord.com/faq</a> and you can see my actual feed at <a href="https://pagecord.com/pagecord" rel="nofollow">https://pagecord.com/pagecord</a>.That’s it. Just a bit of fun, but maybe some people will enjoy it. Let me know what you think and have a lovely day!-- Olly

I tried it straightaway, because I use the Dictate app to speech-to-text out essays during walks (next to river & wind etc.) rather than typing in enclosed office (a massive impact, I’ve “wrote” 3-4 essays this month vs 0-1 last month).Problem is the voice app’s export feature is only available on email. Technically I can copy the text and put it on Notion, but it’s so many clicks so I’ve been sending it to my own email. The essays are now dispersed in my inbox and I’m still dreading the day to collect them (the essays articulated important insights that were encouraging to me as a solo founder)From now I will try sending emails to your API email address for my future voice essays, then organize them on your web UI

One of the first products I enjoyed using after learning about startups in general, and yc in particular, was Posterous[1] specifically for this feature.Very cool.[1] <a href="https://www.ycombinator.com/companies/posterous">https://www.ycombinator.com/companies/posterous</a>

OP here. If you're interested, Pagecord was built using Ruby on Rails and uses the marvellous Postmark for receiving email. <a href="https://pagecord.com/pagecord/5f5e121" rel="nofollow">https://pagecord.com/pagecord/5f5e121</a>
