its cloud based. takes old and infrequently used files and moves them to a cloud drive- symlinks it back so it still works with your apps. you can pick what files are OK to move. completely automatic and secure.


http://www.Newz.io - Searchable magazine organized by topic that pulls from thousands of top publishers. For instance if I wanted to see all the bin laden news i go to http://www.newz.io/bin-laden and it'll create a magazine on those keywords


Thats one of the directions we're going in with Newz.io- very soon. The underlying concept is to make it dead simple to show people what you're reading in an attractive way.


Not to be offensive or discredit your efforts in any way, but i personally think the layout used by Paper.li is much easier on the eye


Thanks. I look forward to that update when you get round to it ;-)


Yes.. sadly this will end with regulation- more of it.


Why is that sad? As these get more and more autonomous they will be capable of targeted assassination. The same hardware accelerated face-recognition chip in your $50 point-and-shoot camera will wind up making point-and-shoot a taboo phrase.


Well, with this kind of thing becoming more popular as it becomes more possible (thanks to improved batteries and cheap small video cameras) it's only a matter of time before it gets regulated.

Even if everybody only used them with the best intentions, someday someone's gonna get seriously hurt by getting clobbered on the head by one of these things.

Still, for now: awesome video!


Isn't this "what if" thinking the whole problem with, for example, the TSA?

Yes, someone will get hurt. Someone may even die. It will be terrible, but it will be an accident. We can't prevent all accidents, nor should we try.


Well considering Groupon has 80% of the market- this is probably too much but they need the cash to compete if Goog gets 'em. They need amazon's marketing machine more than anything. But there's enough money in the space to go around thats for sure.


What is this... digg?


I to am really surprised this got to the front page. I'm kind of interested in how that happened. But on the other hand I've been browsing HN for about 2 years now. I wish now that I had contributed more in the past so I could down vote submissions. It's probably schmucks like me who tell everyone, not just those that have the same interests, that they read HN. Yes, the account I'm using is a more recent account, I forgot my old password.


Its looking like it. The future's grim, george.


Excellent concept. Great execution.


I love how the premise is to not click- but to get started you have to... click.


Simple. Effective.


Kudos! But this should have been done long ago.
