Show HN: ShowNotify (nightproject)

1 points by deviavir 13y ago ↗ HN

I got sick of having to find out that my favourite show had actually continued a month ago and that I have a lot of catching up to do.. So I built something that simply sends me a mail that a new episode from my favourite show is coming up or aired the day before.

I ask users for a one time 1 euro (I couldn't go any smaller with gumroad, sorry!) fee, they can search for their shows and add them to their notification list. That's it! They'll get a mail when their show airs.

I dont know how you can expect people to pay 1 euro ($1.30 dollars!) by just showing them a signup form with NO information about what it is. Not sure if this is a joke or a scam. If neither, how about creating a simple free-tier plan like 1 or 2 show notifications and then charge for more?

Sorry about that, it was a nightproject so looking back I've made a few mistakes :-)

I'll add a free tier for hackers and show more information on the homepage about what the hell it actually does.
