daybook's comments

Thanks for your suggestions, I have been working on making the images smaller and load faster. In reply to your question if the post is public or private, the answer is up to you. Initially your daybook page is private, this can be changed under settings, a published post is public and a private post is hidden from the site. I get this can be confusing and I'm working on adding clarity throughout.

In response to everyone else who commented, thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts, and I will be sure to update the page accordingly, i.e (copy, landing page, ssl, clearer publish button, demo, etc). I apologize for not commenting earlier, but being HN was not allowing me to comment at my usual speed, that and I was taking a history exam. Anyway, thanks for looking at the site, I hope in the next update will shed more insight as to what daybook can do.

Thanks for the feedback. As of right now the main difference would be the writing experience, and the way platform transforms the post into book-like form. There are still a few key features which I have yet to implement, but I thought it would be a good idea to show HN the site early so I could grow the platform from the outside in.

I apologize for any errors made in the copy of the website, please understand that these were made unintentionally and will be corrected promptly. That being said, I do want to clarify that my goal with daybook is not to be a voice in journaling, but to provide consumers with a platform where they can log their lives just as they would with a diary.

Yeah, it's something I've been meaning to get too. To be honest I just keep putting it off, as I've been more worried about tackling the writing experience. Anyway thanks for the feedback, Ill be sure to make this quick fix soon. By the way, you can check out privacy.daybook.io for an example of what daybook does.

This is side project I undertook this past winter-break. It's far from finished, but I though it would be great to show HN what I am currently working on. The app was more of scratching personal itch, rather than trying to bring order to the dozen blogging platforms. The app is just an attempt to give a different take on what could be if the intimacy of journaling and the power of the web where to come together.
