I was experimenting the new version of Twitter Bootstrap 2.0 and the responsive design. It turned out pretty great and then I have decided to extended it to more additions as the following:

* http://bootstrap.io/ for layout design / responsive design

* http://backbonejs.org/ for router (collection/view will be added soon)

* http://url2png.com for web thumbnail

* http://subtlepatterns.com for background wallpaper

* http://icanhazjs.com for rendering template

I am still improving the site as I am learning more about bootstrap and backbone.js. I hope you guys are enjoying the site.

Am I missing something? No content is loaded when I click any of the tabs in Chrome 16 or Firefox 9.

Look like the API I am using is hammered

I am using http://api.ihackernews.com

I will look at issues when I am home.

Feedback: When you launch a site like this, it's useful if you seed some content on the site.

Looks like its trying to load something via AJax, but its timing out.

Thanks for suggestion. I need to find powerful API like http://api.ihackernews.com/.

I'll improve the site tonight and this weekend.

I'm not sure what's going on. It loaded for me once in Chrome but it took a long time. Can't get it to load at all now. A progress bar or a error would be helpful.

Thanks for suggestion. I'll update the site tonight

Sorry for not working since API isn't responsive. :-(

Hey,

You mind chatting with me in private? Would love to learn from your recent experience.

Hit me up at xcubic.m[at]gmail[dot]com

Thanks!

I don't see any content, just categories and a patterned background that I assume was meant to hold the 'HNpins'

No. Sounds like the API (http://api.ihackernews.com/) is randomly on or off. I need to look at alternatives.

Am I missing something? I see just a nice big blank page.

nyrbOP

Yeah I wasn't expecting the issue. I think the API I use is getting hammered. Gauges said I have 1k unique visitors in 20 mins.

http://api.ihackernews.com is all I can find but alternative one is what I'm looking for.

Doesn't work for me (Chromium 15)

i see nothing but a blank page? is that what supposed I see?

nyrbOP

No. The API I am using might not work. I need to find powerful API than http://api.ihackernews.com
