Nice work Marek! Neil from raining.fm here, I did a quick mashup after work tonight, check it out here http://raining.fm/raindrops
Hi guys, Thanks for the look in, I have been working on this over the Christmas break and would love to hear any feedback you have. We are basically in a soft launch phase so definitely take any advice on board. HN is…
No worries at all mate, thanks for the props! We have rewritten a new version with some cool new requested functionality, just bug testing atm, planning to push live in few days ;) stay rainy and code on!
Hi windsurfer, thanks for the heads up, we have found it works on some android devices but not others (it seems to like chrome browser on droid) . We didn't want to offer a crappy broken version to the masses, so we are…
Hi Neil from raining.fm angry dev ftw!
@intellegacy yes that is what we intend to do, have different rain types :)
@exogen I am thinking of perhaps categorising the images, so the user can view categories or shuffle all, eg, nature, architecture, people etc also adding pause so you can sit on your favourite slide.
Hi basicallydan, yes that would be super cool, I have been thinking about how to get rain from around the world etc, I agree that would be awesome :)
@primigenus I will look into that, thank you!

@fumar ok cool volume slider added to the list, thanks.
@ChrisNorstrom, Thanks for the advice Chris, we will definitely need to refine some things now that people have shown an interest.
@damncabbage, that is no good, can you tell me what browser and OS you are using mate? see if we can't get that sorted for you :)

@jeffool, definitely some great ideas there thanks for the suggestions, a few of which I have knocking around in my head already ;) I certainly have plans to take it far beyond it's current state and that of anything…

@pud perfect! I knew there were others like me!
I'll put it on the list :)
very clever, my brother played with this type of effect in flash a year or so back, but I think because I knew it was fake it just wasn't the same hahah.
@mb_72 I do exactly the same when sleeping mate, phone with 30min rain track on loop for masking noise ;) I agree for now the target user is a quick fix audience, but in future who knows!
Hi guys, thanks for the comments, I'm Neil the guy who made the site. Long time lurker on HN but never posted hahah, felix is correct I am trying to gauge interest in the project as to whether to keep working on the…
Why this hasn't existed in some form on the W3C site from day 1 is beyond me. good job!
