A couple of days ago I tweeted that I would like a Chrome extension that would let me know whether or not a site had been hunted or not. @BlendahTom replied to my tweet "that it would be ready by Tuesday". I thought he was joking, but he wasn't! I love this tool. Thanks Tom.

@erictwillis Thanks Eric! I can't tell you how many times I have been out hunting only to find out later that the site I was on had already been submitted. Big thanks go out to @andreasklinger & @rrhoover for making the improvements necessary to the Product Hunt api for this to work :)

@BlendahTom You beat me on our "Maker Challenge". I've got to hustle to get something ready this month. I'm loving this tool.

@BlendahTom Nice work! I assume you use `/v1/posts/all?search[url]=http://www.example.com` right? Btw there is also a `/v1/related_links?search[url]=https://www.techcrunch.com/2014/...` So you could technically make this popup also come up on a techcrunch article!

@andreasklinger excellent, I will make those changes.

@andreasklinger Could you expand a bit on how the related links would work with this extension?

@BlendahTom eg you go to a techcrunch article about www.ubertinder.com and you will see that there is a discussion about this product happening on producthunt

@andreasklinger ahh .. I see. that's a little outside the intended usecase but something that I will def keep in mind :)

Awesome idea! I always get depressed when I get the "someone already hunted this" notice. :(

@danlev I used to have nightmares about that notification!

Love this. @andreasklinger and I have discussed updating the PH Chrome Extension to include notifications like this (among other things). Glad to see @BlendahTom beat us to it. @joshelman - you'll appreciate the name.

Installed I really like this. Often I find a product that was hunted months ago that I missed, and the conversation has long died out, but I still would be totally down to gab about it. It'd be cool if this helped refresh the discussion on PH for "aged" hunts. Btw: when you install on Chrome there's a typo in the prompt. Your'e instead of you're. Also, if there were a way to block notifications when we're coming from PH that'd be cool!

@stttories good idea.. will fix the the spelling/grammar issues as well!

@stttories Maybe what we can do is only show you the alert one time and not every time you visit said site. I would be worried that peeps visiting from PH would think the extension didn't work.

@stttories Grammar in title fixed :)

@BlendahTom You should release this as open-source. We can integrate functionality into --> https://github.com/producthunt/p...

@BlendahTom Whenever I view any YouTube video, this comes up: http://imgur.com/hzdDG6u. Apart from that, awesome extension.

@AsadDhamani Looks like someone hunted Youtube at some point.. maybe having a feature where it remembers if you have visited the site before so you don't get the popup all the time?

@BlendahTom That would work. It might cause problems on certain domains though, like sublimetext.com vs sublimetext.com/3. Maybe a way to blacklist certain urls could be added.

@AsadDhamani @BlendahTom yes I need that!
