I didn't make a million dollars sitting on a train.
I made it because of what I repeatedly did while sitting on one.
For years, I used otherwise forgettable pockets of time, commuting, waiting, sitting between things, to keep learning tech.
Sometimes it was something completely new. Sometimes it was refreshing a concept I'd forgotten. Sometimes it was learning a technology I thought would matter for the next stage of my career.
What if your feed actually helped you remember something?
A few weeks ago, this started with a simple question.
We realized we spend hours discovering incredible ideas online, yet remember almost none of them. Instead of asking people to stop scrolling, we asked: what if scrolling could become learning?
RELVE just became the first paid owner of The Only Billboard. Their ad now occupies the entire live board.
The rules are odd on purpose: there is only one ad; a new buyer replaces the current owner; the next price rises by $1; and every displaced ad remains in permanent History.
That means the empty experiment is over. RELVE bought chapter one for $1, and someone else can write chapter two for $2. It could be a startup, an artist, a community, a joke, a cause, or something nobody expects.
A bit of context: two months ago, I launched Focus Mode, a Chrome extension that turns Chrome into a workspace to help you focus.
With a single keyboard shortcut, the extension hides your tabs, the address bar, and your bookmarks, leaving only your current page. Nothing to distract you. It s a problem I personally had, because I have this annoying habit of opening more than 25 tabs and never closing them, haha.
I m building Brainface, a visual control room for the memory, sources, context and agents behind personal and business AI systems.
Chat is useful for getting work moving, but once priorities, sources, permissions and agents multiply, it becomes difficult to see the whole system. Brainface adds a persistent visual layer alongside tools such as Slack, Telegram and AI coding agents, helping people see what their AI knows, where its context comes from and what needs attention next.
The product is currently in early access. I m looking for founders and teams already building persistent AI memory or multi-agent workflows who are willing to describe what they need to see and control.
You can view the current product concept and join the waitlist at https://www.brainface.ai/
Your insights will help shape the final product! I'm seeking beta testers for my extension before the full launch on Product Hunt. This extension is free (with a fair usage limit) and has been verified by Mozilla for safety. Its goal? To enhance your online communication and make you look smarter! If you're interested in trying it out, please let me know! How about you guys? @phil_meyer@andrii_khomenko1@simon_paul4
I m building InstaTime Navigator, a Chrome extension focused on one workflow: making old Instagram content easier to find. The problem I noticed is that many creators, marketers, agencies, and social media managers use Instagram like a work archive, but when they need to find an old post, Reel, caption, hashtag, campaign reference, or date-based example, the default workflow is still manual scrolling. I m trying to solve this with search by caption, hashtag, mention, keyword, date, month, year, and media type, plus local indexing, exports, and basic account comparison. I m curious how other builders and marketers think about this: If you manage social media content, what would matter most in a tool like this? Speed, privacy/local indexing, better filters, exports, analytics, or multi-account support?
