Why WE Built TubeOceanic for YouTube Analytics

·1 views

We built TubeOceanic because we wanted an easier way to look at YouTube channel numbers without jumping between five different sites or doing the math yourself. YouTube actually shares a lot of public info — subscribers, views, video counts, likes, comments, and more. But just staring at one number doesn't really tell you much on its own.

When do AI agents actually matter? Benchmarking RAG vs GraphRAG vs Agentic GraphRAG on TigerGraph

Driftnet: one box that catches everything I would otherwise forget

This is a submission for the Hacktoberfest Weekend Challenge: Build for a Friend I built Driftnet for my friend Samuel. Before I wrote any code I asked him one question: what is actually going wrong for you? Samuel is always busy and always building something, and ideas, links and opportunities reach him from everywhere. He did not give me a feature list. He told me a story.
