My pictures aren't boring. I use the Gotham filter. Also, nobody needs $41M to provide anything more useful or socially relevant if one is to believe that investors were taking a stake in the future potential of the Color team vs. its current offering.

The fact remains that Mr. Poole has been unable to monetize his current user base on the seven-year old 4chan, build a medium-term scalable solution, attract talent or serious investment nor can he be arsed to explain just what exactly canv.as is and why we should take him seriously. Moot aside, I think I'll adopt the position stated in his AMA/recruitment pitch:

"Yes, instead of treating him like the creator of 4chan, let's treat him like the developer of a new website in closed beta that none of us have used. That will be fascinating."
