For those who are interested in creating your own "HackewNews for XYZ", try out

(I'm a developer at Postatic)

We've been in public beta for a few months, there are about 1000 HackerNews for XYZ sites (or we call it communities).

We don't have a feature for discovering these sites yet - but they are on their way. Here are a few example sites that some of our users run.

- HN for curated list of online tools for communication - http://tools.robingood.com/

- HN for Startup news - http://www.heystartup.com

- HN for Swift programmers - http://swift.postatic.com

- HN for Standup comedy - http://stan-dupco-medy.postatic.com

- HN for Skateboarders - http://www.hammerrank.com



That is nice, and congratulations on your relative success.

But personally, using a service kind of takes the fun out of it.


Love the technology. Since you're in the space, maybe you can answer this question I've been wondering for awhile - what are inbound.org and outbounding.org built on? As in what template/what CMS?


According to Dharmesh, Inbound.org is a custom app built on the LAMP stack. http://inbound.org/discussion/view/we-build-grow-and-manage-...

Not sure about outbounding.org though.


Thanks Joseph.

For inbound.org - http://builtwith.com/inbound.org ?


It looks very nice... congrats! just one thing. For some reason IE doesn't show it up properly: http://imgur.com/Qr5EtnR


Thanks for pointing it out! It should look ok now.
