# Grid Diary for iPhone®, the simplest way to get started with keeping a diary.

Diaries are hard work and the blank page can be daunting. Grid Diary is introducing a unique way to overcome the writer's block problem:

1. Structured: Instead of getting started with a blank page, Grid Diary brings you a pre-defined set of "grids".
2. Guided: Each grid comes with a prompt, which can guide you to jot down your memories for a day.

"Writing in this way allows me to express myself with ease," said Kevin Cao, Founder. "Grid Diary promotes personal growth and challenges me to evoke self analysis."

Grid Diary is started with a simple and clear purpose. Through carefully crafted gestures, users can write their diaries in the most intuitive way. It’s not only helpful but also entertaining. The 2nd version of Grid Diary takes it further. It packed with completely new features providing great experience in keeping your diaries under control.

Ask HN: Gadget/service recommendations to make an office mobile
I run a niche e-commerce business and am making my office mobile. What gadgets and services would HN'ers recommend to make it easy to work effectively from just about anywhere? I've started to make the transition, so I'll start:
- eFax and a VOIP number of course
- Neat Receipts Scanner: super portable, scans any document
- NitroPDF: editing PDFs is useful when you need to fill out documents and forms without the use of a printer or scanner
- Online BillPay: service offered by most banks so you can mail checks online
- DropBox
- Anyone have any experience with remote inbound mail services like earthclassmail.com?
- I love having a second monitor but would never lug one around. Anyone have any suggestions? Is there a good tablet to rig up as a second monitor?

http://jobs.polleverywhere.com/apply/OK0BQR/Frontend-Develop...

Front-end Developer/Designer

We're seeking a talented developer to help us build brilliant data visualizations.

Poll Everywhere is the largest text message visualization app in the world. Millions of people have texted, tweeted, or otherwise submitted votes and messages to people running our live screens.

You will be responsible for designing and maintaining our core data visuals. Your real-time dataviz work will be on prime time TV, used at TED, on stage with CEOs that are household names, behind rock stars in concert, on Times Square billboards, and in thousands of PowerPoint slides every day.

Usability is not an afterthought. If the user can't figure it out, it is a bug.

You should be interested in learning or sharpening your HTML5 while you work for us. You have impeccable design sense, and you carefully consider the writings of Tufte, Wroblewski, and Moggridge.

Technical experience should include:

- Previous visualization projects that you can show us
- Proof that you like Test Driven Development
- Ability to use REST APIs
- HTML and CSS mastery
- jQuery, JavaScript

...and at least one of:

- HTML5
- Processing
- Quartz
- Adobe Flex, ActionScript 3

Tell us more about

- Previous visualizations you've built (screenshots are good, URLs are awesome)
- Experience with OSS and/or side projects
- Involvement in the developer community through meetups, projects, essays, etc
- Fun, interesting, or crazy programming languages you've played around with
- Art, music, and literature, or things that fascinate you

We don't care about

- Every technology you've used since you touched a keyboard (like DOA web services and HP Basic)
- Verbose resumes (shorter is better)

Education

We don't really care about your education. Anybody can get a college degree. What we care about is your ability to communicate, get stuff done, and work with a team. If you feel your education helps communicate those traits, tell us about it.

Location:

We have a physical presence in San Francisco and a satellite office in Chicago, but will consider remote collaboration. Don't be afraid to get on an airplane once in a while.

Requirements

You must be legally authorized to work in the United States.

Comp

$70K - $120K salary, determined by perceived talent
Stock options negotiable
Health and 401K benefits available

Application Process

Keep applications brief; we want small resumes with relevant experience. Be prepared to defend any laundry lists of skills. Short but super-personalized cover letters are welcome.

Good luck.

Ask HN: Have there been any resources about spreadsheets that struck you?
I am pondering spreadsheets lately. I've realized that the graph shape of a sheet is sort of peculiar. I can't think of a lot of programming paradigms where I've bumped into problems structured this way.

I was thinking about spending some time reading about what powers spreadsheets and maybe trying to implement my own.

If you have any resources to share, it'd be very much appreciated!

Thanks.

TradeNet
http://www.kn-it.com
TradeNet fills an evident gap in the equity trading systems arena. Most vendors focus on either the front office functions forequity trade and order management or, alternatively, focus on the back office functions including operation and settlement for equity trading.

While the arena is witnessing mergers between different player to offer a full cycle coverage, TradeNet was built from the start to handle the whole process of order equity trading from capture to settlement. TradeNet has always offered real-time risk management, real-time purchase power management and real-time settlement to customer accounts. This has been possible due to TradeNet's integrated architecture for equity trading.

TradeNet also features a full-fledged suite of channel applications to enable investors to manage their accounts from the internet, their mobile phones, IVR systems, or from a specialized desktop application that offers high levels of sophistication.

Human bias vs. real-time machine learning in audience segmentation
http://www.voltari.com/blog/human-bias-vs-real-time-machine-learning-audience-segmentation
It's the media buying and planning version of man vs. machine. When planning your next campaign, consider what real-time machine learning can tell you about your target audience—you may be surprised.

Last fall, we collaborated with a leading independent filmed entertainment studio to conceptualize an engaging, first-to-market, mobile-rich media campaign in support of a major horror movie debut. The goal was to build awareness of the film among our client’s growing mobile audience.
Is there any level of computer security that can match the human AIS?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptive_immune_system
I was always fascinated by molecular biology and the how the cell worked. It was easy to understand and grasp some things at once, because I was able to see a direct relationship with computer networks. But the molecules continue to astonish me, due their incredible level of complexity.

Apart from other things, it's part of my study material for my next exam (Pathophysiology).

Show HN: Flickoutr Fixes Flickr Photo Sharing
http://clientsideweb.net/social/flickoutr
For a while now I've been pissed off with Flickr's own silent failing whenever it tries to auto-share my new image uploads to Facebook and doesn't have the smarts to take into account Facebook Graph uses OAuth2 and has an expiry on their access tokens. I also don't like the fact I had only one option (share all or none).

Flickoutr fixes all this. Built with the Flickr API it warns a user when they need to renew Facebook authentication for the app, and gives them a nice and simple url to click to do so. No fumbling about the Flickr help forum or Googling. It also allows Flickr users to share by tag or set.

And thanks to some good old fashioned feature creep, for Flickr Group admins it supports sharing to Facebook groups & pages too.
