I've left my job to work full time on PushBullet. Two of my friends are joining me. Now the question is: how much can we build, and how fast? So far this means pushing yourself files, links, notes, to-do lists, and addresses that instantly show up in your notification tray. One personal mission of mine is to make it so you never have to email yourself again. Emailing yourself sucks. So far, PushBullet has been used to push almost , things, and the number grows every day.
My daily driver is a white Galaxy S4 running Cyanogenmod I spend hours just flicking the video up and down. Or maybe Greenify , so I can shut down apps that eat way too much battery. Chris is the Python genius programming PushBullet's servers. He grew up in Louisiana and went to school in Colorado. It's his first Android phone after I saved him from the dark side. In his spare time, he builds desks that weigh even more than they look like they weigh , plays Disc golf , and idolizes Jonathan Blow.
Andre is our Real Programmer , and he lives in the future. He works on a Chromebook Pixel and programs entirely over the web with an editor he put together himself. We say he lives in the future because someday all programmers might program like he does, or they may not. We'll just have to wait and find out. His daily driver is still an iPhone but that's only because he hasn't had time to get an Android phone. Or so he says. Even though the three of us have only worked together on PushBullet for a few weeks, you can already see the progress we've made on the redesigned PushBullet website , improved Chrome and Firefox extensions, and the updated Android app.
Going from one part-time developer to three full-time developers has radically increased the speed at which we can improve PushBullet. The first is a homescreen and lockscreen widgets.
To access this list, just open the drawer and change to the All Pushes view. Right now, everyone has to manually share individual devices with each other, which is very tedious.
