I’ve been wanting to have a color ereader for a while (e.g. when non-fiction books have charts, illustrations, and photos I want to see them as they appear in print) and I’ve been looking at Kobo and others. But I want access to buy books on Amazon easily.

It’s my understanding that you can’t easily get Amazon books onto anything else than Kindle, is that not true?


Unless it runs Android then you could download Kindle app from Play Store. Boox eReaders run on Android

A simple option is CrowdCurity - reward programs as a service. Private or public, dollars or bitcoin payments - everything setup and managed for the companies.

Fine fine, i'll play nice...

Ps: the idea is pretty cool. So is the implementation =) though how would you guys have handled if an issue like this occurs on your platform? A submitter submits a bug but the company refuses to pay for it citing "out of scope" ??


You know, you are just harming yourself this way. If you must show your stuff on HN, why not post it as a ShowHN?? why do this dishonorable thing to gain attention? IMO it actually harms you.


a down vote? :O but why? i thought we were unanimously against plugs?


You didn't get the memo ? There's no such thing as a single we anymore.


Well maybe there's some light at the end of the tunnel: If hackers had an easier way to gain recognition and being rewarded when they discover vulnerabilities, I'm certain most would choose to disclose their findings rather than try selling them on the black market. I'm working on a startup right now, www.crowdcurity.com, where we want to let any site easily create a bug bounty program (similar to Google, Mozilla, Paypal, etc.) and thereby leverage testers around the world to find vulnerabilities; hopefully initiatives like this will strengthen the security of web apps and websites around the world.
