I have found a great Chrome extension, tab outliner https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/tabs-outliner/eggkanocgddhmamlbiijnphhppkpkmkl?hl=en, it allows one to keep tabs to minimum by allowing to save them in an tree interface. For a peace of mind, it’s essential.

This is a handy website that allows one to check out different app stores top games list. It definitely gives an insight about what people buy across the globe.

Another app idea of mine is codename scrapbook. Often times, I find myself browsing through all kinds of webpages, PDFs, videos when I am trying to learn a new language, framework or technology. Things get out of hand pretty quickly. It becomes hard to follow and remember where I leave things off, when I want to pick up later. Browser often becomes a mess with 120 tabs open.

In order to solve this problem it will be good to have a service where it’s easy to dump links, text, video, in order to pick those up later.

This is a project I have been thinking about for a while. I envisioned it as a service for my own needs when I want to be able save charts along with typical information like entry, exit points to look at them later.

For a very simple start, I need a few things to make this work: 1. Figure out a way to route the screen shot of the chart from desktop using mac os x screenshot application to the chartist application. 2. Get a few inputs from the user including the derivative symbol, entry price, exit price. 3. Try to grab the feed from the yahoo finance API.

This is a simple interactive tutorial that gives the basics on markdown. (http://www.markdowntutorial.com/) Octopress is based on markdown by default, so it’s useful to learn it before going forward.

I cannot believe I spent 3 hours on octopress installation. I deleted the repository 5 times and try to re-install only to find out that all problems were related to zsh.
