The creators of BreakupNotifier.com launched CrushNotifier.com
The fate of a small resource BreakupNotifier.com, about which the author tells in the blog of his new project, is entertaining.
So, about a week ago, a certain young man decided to try to write an application for Facebook that allows you to monitor the “family” statuses of your friends and receive notifications about their changes.
Over the weekend, he posted a link to him on his Twitter and news IT resources , but did not receive a significant response in the first hour.
However, after an hour the publication began to actively receive votes. People began to post links to the project on Twitter and Facebook, then TechCrunch joined. After that, the dam was broken: a home television channel in Missouri, a radio station in Miami and a newspaper in Brazil told about the project. As a result, in the first 24 hours of its existence, the project was visited by more than 116,000 people.
What does this tell us? The author believes that this experience has shown that people really, more than anything else, valuesex .

Shortly after reaching the peak of traffic, Facebook turned off the application's API access and blocked it without giving a reason. Communication with Facebook didn’t clarify the situation, and the author still doesn’t know why he was banned.
So in the meantime, the author decided to create a new mini-project: CrushNotifier.com
The rules are simple: you tell which of your friends on Facebook you like (the number of “crashes” is limited), but the friend does not know who exactly “laid eyes” while he / she also does not admit to liking you.
As soon as the application receives news of mutual interest, an email is sent to both users.
(What people will not think of, just not to talk to each other. And what a space for applications that can help them with this!)
