I simply didn't remember your name. Months ago when I looked at your website and commented with you here, I was impressed. I was not impressed with SI when I just read the 2 or 3 sentence description, only because of multiple coincidental reasons.

First, I didn't remember that SI was your company and I was impressed with your company, so my thought was, why is this company in the list better than the company I remember chatting with a few months back that was struggling, yet passionate and interested in saving local news. I was disappointed that companies like yours weren't represented in the list. It just so happens that the company I was reading about was your company.

So you're an interesting case, because I knew about you and knowing about you was why I wasn't impressed with the SI I was reading about, simply because I knew of an impressive other company in the space. It supports what pg is saying, that with deeper investigation, some of the unimpressive companies become impressive, because I had done deeper investigation on you months before and was impressed.
