Zach Klein is killing it. Co-founder of Vimeo, founder of Svpply. He's been involved in lots of other cool gigs too. It's been really fun to follow along with his progress over the last few years. Tons of respect for the guy, and glad that he has done most of this outside of SV. Congrats on the sale!

I would say that an acquihire of a struggling product that he was only marginally involved in, isn't the time to congratulate the guy. He was primarily an investor and probably just lost some money

Oh, absolutely. Between Vimeo, Svpply, DIY, and his Cabin Porn blog (SFW, you should check it out if you haven't yet), he seems to have impeccable taste for things the internet could use. Huge props to him for everything.

completely out of topic, but i'm really curious: the moment i saw those isolated cabins, all sorts of things that can go wrong popped up in my mind, especially safety issues. like, you can have armed fugitive stopped by and do nasty things to you. or, do they have like hidden sensor/perimeter or stuff?

It's possible that these things could happen. It's also possible that you are paranoid.
