Wow! Deciding to quit a great job to focus full-time on open source development, has been one of the craziest, scariest decisions I've ever made. Today is actually my last day in the office, and I've locked myself away in a quiet room to write these lines (and hyperventilate with excitement). My goal with UpUp, like my other open source work, has been to make using cutting-edge web technologies easy and approachable for all developers. I hope I've succeeded, and I hope you'll share with me how you've used it. Thank you for writing about UpUp. I couldn't ask for a nicer gift as I embark on this adventure, or a better way to tell my new wife I'm not crazy after all!

The Pitch

@talater Best of luck! UpUp seems like a really, really cool concept, as well.

Wow, @talater, this looks awesome! Can I ask (feel free to say none of my business), how do you intend on supporting yourself financially?

@fredrivett My wife has asked me to reply to your question ASAP :) The plan is to develop free open source products that solve the problem for a large number of users, while offering paid enterprise versions for those who need special features and long term support. Mike Perham, creator of sidekiq has been a huge inspiration for this. The specifics of the plan are still a work in progress.

Adding functionality even if the user is offline? Awesome. Definitely will be taking this for a spin - kudos for the great idea, and for focusing on OS projects full time. : : )

Yikes. I tried to visit UpUp and got a big red screen with a warning that "The site ahead contains harmful programs". https://monosnap.com/file/5EpTRC...

@miriamschwab I just got a message from Google that they checked it again and no problems were found. The site was cleared and is back online now. You can guess how stressful the last few hours have been, trying to figure out what happened… As far as I can tell this was because of an old 4 year old link to an exe file hosted on GitHub. I removed it and all is well again.

@talater Sounds awful! Glad you got that sorted out.

This is great. Another feature request :) - send a notification for when the site comes back online - not sure if this is possible with ServiceWorkers, but you could save millions of people from hitting refresh billions of times a day!

@bobsheth It's not about website being offline but the user. :)

@konradcaban It actually works both when the user is offline, the server is down and/or during zombie apocalypses.

@talater This. Is. Mind blowing. And I'm totally in love with your Profile Description. I think this could be huge, and I'm going to be using this in literally all of our web based products.

I love this. But honestly I think there are going to be less and less situations when we're offline...
