I started searching for a piece of land for a cabin and I was surprised how many clicks does it take to find county tax data. So I built this (and companion extension for Chrome - https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/real-estate-tax-re...)

It works great for WA, some other states/counties may have spotty coverage.



I was between side projects and decided to try my hand in 3D modeling/3D printing. Worked out nicely. Learned tons of new stuff. Will do again :)


I an going to try that, that's a second comment today that it's not clear what to do on homepage...


It's designed for quick cross-store comparison shopping and finding suitable replacements. All sites above are designed for browsing stores.


The presentation is pretty good (fairly minimal, which I like), but I think that some autocompletion in those search forms would go a long way. Things like showing autocompletes for town names or strains.



Awesome. Went from free plan to basic and then to $10/month in 30 minutes.

Integration with movies.io is amazing. And they will automatically download Daily Show from rss feed...

Already downgraded my netflix to 1 movie.


Interesting idea. Are these posts are exactly the same or do they have different title/message?


From what I understand, Craigslist is cool with client-side automation (look at numerous Android and iPhone apps that query Craigslist).


I'm also working on a Chrome and Firefox extension which uses Craigslist as a data source, and this is my understanding as well

I think that rich client-side js apps packaged as browser extensions offer some interesting opportunities in general - being able to behave more like a normal client, instead of a giant aggregation host, allowing you to avoid angering services like Craigslist, being able to ask the user for permissions for increased localstorage limits (the default in most browsers is a measly 5mb) and the ability to do cross-domain ajax requests, etc.


It would be awesome, but I live in Seattle and don't want to move :(


Understood. It can't hurt to ask.
