Gmail bouncer - to save the inbox from garbage
All,

I've been religiously pruning my gmail inbox to avoid garbage. All of my emails get forwarded to my personal email (except a couple) so I need to stay on top of my unsubscribes so I don't end up with dozens of unnecessary emails an hour. Unfortunately, I also end up missing some unimportant emails, but things I would have wanted to see eventually. I came up with this idea, but I'm not talented enough to actually code it. Any suggestions?

Reasons techies quit their jobs
http://www.infusivesolutions.com/blog/bid/90273/5-Reasons-Your-Tech-Talent-is-Quitting
Last week, I did a number of interviews with both technical professionals and recruiters in order to learn what factors would lead technologists to jump ship from their current job and look for something new.

Here are the top 5 reasons I synthesized.

1. An inability to work with the best technologies
2. A crappy, non-technical manager
3. Better opportunity/poaching
4. A lack of flexibility
5. A lack of recognition and support

But, I want to know if you all agree with these items. Do you think any are particularly important? Any that don't belong on the list? Any that are more unique to techies than other professionals?

Facebook shuts down applications for using Adsense
http://forum.developers.facebook.net/viewtopic.php?pid=328947#p328947
To summarize the story so far:

Back in the days, there were some small ad networks that used to run some very manipulative ads, or even popup ads on facebook applications. Since then facebook has imposed restrictions on what kind of ads are allowed. In the latest iteration, they imposed a huge list of draconian terms http://developers.facebook.com/ad_provider_terms/ . The terms seem to be designed so that no large ad provider (who is serious about its customers) can agree. Seemingly, developers will not be able to make their own advertising deals unless facebook agrees to approve it.

Google adsense was so far one of the best options for developers: they provide the safest kind of ads and their payout is much higher than the approved advertisers. Repeated attempts to get google or facebook to comment on the matter are left unanswered. Until now, developers were in limbo, as facebook vaguely suggested they are still in talks with google. Now it seems the decision has been finalized. This is basically an "FU" from facebook to its developers, depriving them of their best monetization options without providing an alternative (i.e. facebook ads revenue share).

Ask HN: Do you use a proxy service?
I have been using a free trial for a proxy service, and it seems to not interfere with web browsing. My hope is that using a proxy will: increase my privacy and decrease my being a target for unwanted marketing; perhaps more protection from world governments hoovering up information on everything I do.

I have a few health issues and I have used the Tor browser for a long time whenever I search the web for (hopefully) useful information. It occurred to me that always having some degree of privacy would be a good thing, thus my interest in proxy servers.

Show HN: Put it to Music (our recent "weekend" project)
http://music.worklabs.com
This is a small project that we built with some off-hours at work. The idea is basically, we provide the idea or context of a song with a one-liner, and people submit either whole songs or parts of songs to collaborate with other users.

This is basically our MVP for this project. There's a fair amount of CSS3/jQuery and we aren't worried about older browsers at this point.

Looking for critiques on visuals/functionality and maybe some ideas of how we might drive people to the site. Most of the one-liners we provide have a country-ish feel to them so we will probably post this on some country music messageboards/blogs to start, but really we welcome any type of music that people want to post.
