I actually have plans to do sth. similar: Use CSS media queries to get a nice printable version (which of course could be used to generate a PDF then). Just haven't found the time to do it yet.
Excellent - looking forward to it.
For those that are looking for other cheatsheets (and maybe you could get yours listed):

Yes, the link is there, maybe buried in all the text. Did you find the homepage too bloated? I added the open source bit in the initial statement
"MarkdownR is an open source project that provides collaborative realtime markdown editor built on top of share.js running on Windows Azure and node.js that allows..."
- SUGGESTIONS
- Switch the screenshot and demo button around (button on right)
- Improve the quality of the screenshot
- Pre-fill the blank slate with some demo items
- Allow users to download data (json/xml etc.)
- BUGS
- When using the demo, press save, then [browser back]. I get a JSON representation
- QUESTIONS
- Does it allow multi-user access?
Thanks a ton. I put the landing page together last night and I'm not much of a designer (tho was pretty happy with how it turned out). Definitely needs better screenshots (and it doesn't work on the ipad right now so should probably drop it!)
Data export coming! and yeah, I prepopulate the initial board with some default columns but should throw a couple stories in there.
It doesn't currently allow multi-user access but it's (fairly) useless without it long term. The free/personal plan isn't collaborative (that's my initial plan). When/if I add some premium plans it will obviously have to have multi-user and realtime updates.
Thanks for your positive comments. You are right, no flash. Thanks to hard work by browser developers, you can achieve pretty impressive stuff using just JS, CSS and HTML. I am indebted to them.
Thanks! It's my first programming work so I doubt it will show off the best methods! But, if there's interest, then sure. Get in touch if you want to chat - http://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=marketmonkey
I launched my weekend project with one thing in mind:
SHIP IT!
Most projects are just that, projects. They very rarely turn in to a business or even make a penny of profit. I tend to build something that either a) I will use or b) Something that will teach me. But, you need to make sure you don't go down the rabbit hole of development. Have a goal in mind to ship by the end of the weekend, even if it doesn't look great, work exactly right or behave just the way you want it to. It never will, there will always be something that you want to change. That's a good thing. Iterative design and development works.
I'm not advocating the release of useless MVPs with poor design or webapps that frankly don't work. What I am saying is that when you give yourself a deadline and stick by it, you can learn a huge amount about yourself. Try it.
I built http://www.livelystocks.com last weekend because I already used a very basic version of it on my local machine. I thought I would give a little back to the HN community. So, I published it. It hasn't gained much traction, I didn't expect it to, but it still got a few hundred people interested and many people use it every day. I managed to learn a new programming language, get to grips with Twitter Bootstrap and I'm pleased about that. More importantly, it taught me how to properly ship, in a very short timescale. And I enjoyed it.
Is there an 'agency' option available where we can monitor more than 8 campaigns? Or even rebrand/white-label it?
