Cool idea. Is mobile app in the works?

Nice. Useful and handy.

I love google music and I use it everyday. It's the most used app of my smart phone.

I wish they had a download option for all the music not just the music that I bought on google. That would help me to get rid of all the music on my computer.

[olegious → snampall]

They do. Just shift select all the songs that you want to download, click that little menu button and select "download all songs"

I use it and it's the most used app of my smart phone.

On: Show HN: Fed up with WebEx, so we built a way to screen share in under 20 sec.

I have been using https://join.me/ and pretty happy with it.

How is this different from https://join.me/?

[ttruong → snampall]

For join.me, you need to have Flash installed to view someone's screen. Screenleap allows you to view from any device with a web browser, whether it be a PC, tablet, or smartphone. In the same way that you don't worry about what email program someone is on before sending them an email, we want to make it so you don't have to worry about what device a person is on before showing them your screen.

How do you plan to compete with LogMeIn once they have an HTML viewer? Which they either already have or will have and very soon.

[johnbatch → ttruong]

Join.me does have an iPad and iPhone app... but this is a lot easier.

[WingForward → snampall]

In the documentation, I didn't see where I can give control of the screen. That's a difference. But it's a good feature to have.

join.me does not support Linux.

Nice. I can see myself using this a lot. Thanks for sharing.

Looks good. Always wondered about all the sites that I have signed up for.

Signed up for it and added an email. The discovering part takes a lot of time and I couldn't do much during this time. How about doing the discovery in the background and let the user explore or do other stuff on the site?

Thanks for sharing your story. Are you guys still pursuing 'Adeptley' or pretty much gave up on it after the rejection?

On: Show HN: Random Google Street View

[snampall]

Nice. May be provide some clues and make it a 'Guess the place' game..

[wgrover → snampall]

Making this into a game was the first thing I thought. It could be as simple as having a game mode that puts a small country map in the corner; you click where you think the view is and receive a score based on how close you are. This could be surprisingly fun and addictive.

[waterlesscloud → wgrover]

Yeah, I immediately checked the "hide location" box and tried to start guessing countries. Vegetation helps get it down to very wide bands, but I bet with some experience you could get it pretty specific.
