Show HN: TheMCP.buzz – Minutes since MCP was last mentioned on HN

2 ai_coder42 2 7/21/2025, 6:23:41 PM themcp.buzz ↗

I’ve been fascinated (and mildly haunted) by how often MCP shows up on Hacker News.

So I made themcp.buzz: a simple site that tracks how many minutes have passed since MCP was last mentioned on HN.

I'm curious to know, Which MCP servers are you actually using regularly? Are you building MCP servers?

Are you using the API?

[feature request] it may be configurable https://themcp.buzz?q=banana

I built my own MCP server for Outlook precisely because I didn't understand all the hype: https://github.com/Norcim133/OutlookMCPServer

With a few days coding, it was a better email assistant than any person or software I've worked with over the last decade.

I've added it to Claude Desktop and use it alongside MCPs for Notion (for DB), OpenMemory (knowledge layer), fetch (web scraping), and Xero (accounting software).
