Hey Everyone,

About 10 months ago I launched my website here http://www.launchly.com/dashboard/launches/119-code-pal

I received an over whelming feedback but many pointed out that my site wasn't a web application. So here I am after 10 months and am finally launching my first online service. Its nothing big as I just started application development.

This is what it is about:

Listify is a very simple free service for web developers which allows you to convert raw text to html’s ‘list’ or ‘option’ elements by choosing various options like delimiter, type of lists and ignoring digits. I got this idea when I was working on the Clinova project. I had to insert the names of all the countries in the landing page of the site. To do that, I had to insert all the names within a <select> tag. You can very well understand the kind of time that would have been wasted doing it manually. So I went ahead and wrote a short piece of code in C, which would accept a text file with the country names and generate another text file with the <select> tags appended to the names. It saved a great amount of time which I utilized to do something else (I most probably saw an episode from How I Met Your Mother). Anyway, so when I started with Codeigniter, I thought, rather than wasting my time on creating a demo useless project, why not convert that C program to an online tool. Hence, came Listify.

I would love some feedback on it :)
