I am reading HN several times a day and, just out of pure curiosity, I was wondering what are the professions that most people that read HN have. I am a product guy, btw.

Is it just here or github is down? https://status.github.com/messages

Like most of you, I'm a huge Survivor fan, waiting the release of every episode and thinking who is the one that gets the boot each time. I cannot see the episode right when it's aired so I see it 12h later. On the other hand, Google Now knows I'm a Survivor fan, and right after each episode it suggests me stories about the player that was kicked out - thus spoiling the surprise. So, dear Google Now, no spoilers from now on, please!

Hi there,

We're in the final steps of preparation for the launch of our new content discovery Android app and wanted to ask the community's help in finding what content categories / sources you think would make the most sense for the general public.

Specifically our app is an Android Lock Screen that pulls RSS content from a number of websites in different categories and aggregates that in an easily accessible format for users to browse in their idle times (e.g. one topic can be Startups and one of the feeds can be the Techcrunch one).

Do you have any suggestions of such topics and content sources? Maybe even sites that you run yourself and would want more visibility for?

Thanks for helping!

I have some small (low traffic) content websites and Google won't let me sign them up in AdSense program (not a lot of content and traffic). The content is good, nice design also. What CPM/CPC Ad Network are there in order to monetize my web traffic? I'm looking for something legit, no pop unders, no "Download" button, or other impersonations. I have the standard formats available 700x90, 300x250. Thanks!

Hi HN Community!

We are currently working on a mobile analytics project focused on the Android platform.

In the spirit of the lean startup philosophy, we want to be able to run live tests of our assumptions with real users, and iterate really fast.

Given that a lot of applications that were developed are now abandoned for a lot of reasons (did not grow big enough, developers moved on to other projects), we thought this might be a good opportunity for us to "adopt" one or more of these apps for us to play with.

The applications that would be the most relevant for us are apps that are already developed and have a considerable, organically attracted, number of daily active users (over 1000). These apps are general purpose and keep the user engaged for a longer than average period of time (for instance a news reader app is better for us than a one time use BMI Calculator).

If anyone is interested in receiving a small financial compensation for a project that would otherwise be abandoned please let us know by sending an email at: kiberstranier@gmail.com

Thanks!
