An app that translates legalese to conversational language. I want to point my camera at:

- housing lease

- healthcare enrollment forms

- loan documents

- EULA

and the app will spit out a translation. There's a slider on the app that will adjust that translated txt from conversational all the way to colloquial.

Or maybe a browser plugin

I have watched hours of youtube, heard hundreds of metaphors, I've read countless articles and followed even more tutorials. I am beginning to think grokking the Monad is beyond me.


IMHO, it would be even better to have this as a servic that I can submit media to and receive these kind of results. Does anyone know of such a service? No knock on Motion Stills, I think Google has made an awesome app.


FWIW: looks like it's in development https://webkit.org/status/#specification-webrtc


That's why I was hoping it would ship with iOS 10. =)


You mean iOS X.


The incredible resilience/fragility of open source all in one thread: https://github.com/azer/left-pad/issues/4#issuecomment-20006...


I'm absolutely enamored with http://imgur.com

- They continually refine the product

- They are careful of feature creep

- The community they've cultivated seems to feel incredible ownership of the product.


they really are crushing the game, and you are right they give a new meaning to the word(s) "loyal following" and "brand ambassadors" imgur.com users are insane!


Very cool project! Is there any word on getUserMedia for IOS Safari?


Currently there's no word on support for IOS8 Safari that I've seen...here's to hoping that it'll come along soon though :D


I believe that is the thinking behind vidd.me


GifCam is my tool of choice. http://blog.bahraniapps.com/?page_id=21
