Hey all,
I'm Hugo, the other person 👨💻 behind MakerWeekly.
Maker Weekly started from this tweet: https://twitter.com/wimgz/status/1061186487377489920
The initial idea was therefore TechCrunch for indie makers/boostrappers/side-hustlers.

Hey 👋,
5 minute feature is a countdown timer that prompts you to tweet when you're done.
This started as a bit of a joke with Ethan (@booligoosh ) of KanbanMail (+ more), since he was live-tweeting as he added some features to his 24hr startup winning project.

Hi all 👋,
I'm Hugo and I run a blog called Code with Hugo (super original I know).
Blogging has treated me well so I've started working on tools to help others get into it. Post Frequency is just for people who like (arguably) pretty pictures of their data.

Let me know if you have any questions

Love Simple Analytics.
I've been using it for Code with Hugo (https://codewithhugo.com) for a few months (https://simpleanalytics.io/codewithhugo.com).
It's much more straightforward than Google Analytics, your stats can be public and it respects user's privacy.

As a developer, it's great to see bots that do one thing and do it well... and this does polling _awesomely_ :)

Let's take the trivial choice out of picking a beer in a supermarket. Face it, they're all pretty bad, having something that suggests a bunch of them to you is something I wanted, so I made it.
You can contribute beers for locations through google forms and if interest is high enough we will make an app :)
