For some time I have been working on a website for developers: developerAcount.com
It is a profile page where you can list everything about you as a developer. Plus some of the URLs you enter will be scraped daily so your profile page gets updated automatically (some parts that is).
Is this something you would use as a developer? If not, what are you missing or what needs to be changed for you to use it?
A demo profile page can be seen on http://www.developeraccount.com/bbb/baris-canatan
You can also sign up to test it out, but the edit profile section is not what I want it to be, so I will be completely rewriting that part.
What is the most used term for a coder in the US? Is it coder, hacker, developer, engineer, programmer or something else?
Sincerely, Baris
I have made a script where you can follow HN users on http://www.nou.nl/hn/. Once you follow users, you can see those users on the frontpage with their last submission or comment. You can also click on the username to see the last 10 submissions and last 10 comments.
I have made it for myself, but am wondering if other HN users would like to use this. If so, I can rewrite the script somewhat, because now I am using cookies and calling the HN Search API (received help from Andres Morey; thanks!) for each user you follow. I would then also add some features, like recommendations who to follow, how many followers a user has and how many a user is following, extended profile page and more.
Remember: this is a test version, so don't enter too many HN users or actually start using it, because it is not production ready (for example, 10 followed users will take more than 4 seconds to load the homepage).
Hope to hear your comments!
