surprisingly nifty!

A scriptable text-based web service? This seems like it could evolve into an online competitor for Emacs, something I could certainly find use for.

I like it. Very much in the spirit of nvALT [1], TaskPaper [2] and to some extent quiver [3]. I prefer human readable formats since it avoids lock in and allows me to edit my…

Sounds decent enough...but do you expect to eventually offer a self-hosted version? Not sure about others, but that would be my interest.

Another here as well...I was excited up until I saw it wasn't self hosted, I had wrongly assumed it was aimed at running a personal/internal web server/site.

Hey, awesome idea. Can't wait to try it out. Unfortunately I'm getting a 504 when I try to register. If you could let me know when things are back up and running that would be…

the password field says minimum 8 characters, I inputted 9, still not letting me signup. looks like you have a couple of bugs to fix in a critical phase of your app (user…

I dont get it ... Is it a storage driver, web app, file manager? What makes this better then say notepad or vim? Or saving text files on your local system!?

So first off, it's always cool to have built and released something, so congrats on that, but these are the questions I'm left with as a potential user: 1. What's different about…

Here's one more request, I would like self hosted as well

Pretty interesting! I would love to see ClojureScript support soon

+ 1 for ClojureScript - which now has eval in the browser btw.

The only feedback that jumps out at me is that while most people will have their own systems, it would be cool to have a simple method to export/import scripts or share them that…

Could you elaborate a bit on "files within files"? I don't think there's an example of that on the page. You allow people to execute scripts on your server? How does the security…

I might be your target market. I use google keep for online plain text type things. I can definitely see the power of being able to run scripts over these kinds of notes. For…

There's also Dontpad: http://dontpad.com/

There is also http://pen.io/

Good stuff. I have used Google Drive and Google Apps scripting for this kind of thing in the past, so I'd be interested to know how this compares.

This reminds me of UserLands "Frontier", a Mac product from the early 90s. It was a scripting language and object database. Current execution state and scripts themselves lived…

The most important role of UNIX is to provide a file system. From the point of view of the user, there are three kinds of files: ordinary disk files, directories, and special…
