At the core, the idea was to provide a way to get notified when GitHub projects you use (star or watch) publish new releases. Keeping you in the know when features get added or that bug that's about to kill your Monday gets fixed. Seems like something GitHub would do, but the only way you can get notified about releases through GitHub is to 'watch' a repo and then you get notified for every issue, comment, pull request, etc.. Got some pretty good reception on HN and have some major improvements and additions coming in the next week or so.
