I suppose this is why there is room for startups that summarize these books into a few pages.

You have just one router, and that's only a config file that maps URLs to routes.

They're dropping controllers and views in a month, with Ember 2.0. They're being replaced by components.

So really you will only work with routes and components - which should make things much easier to understand.

That's a good observation. However, only a few job posts mention git, even though it's probably used by most companies. I would assume the reason is that git is pretty easy to learn in 1 or 2 days (at least the basic functionality) and programmers shouldn't be rejected based on that.

yeah, I'd love to understand the reason behind that statement.
This is just the beginning. You can follow us to see further development.
It's through email.

If you use a fake email to signup, then you probably aren't that interested in that service. We curate signups, so that only the relevant ones are displayed on the Sunnytrail dashboard.

If there's no info about an email address, then we display info about the domain.

We're using Klout to determine influence.

It works, you can go ahead and give it a try. After registration, you will be redirected to a friendly integration wizard.

It's not opt in. We add context to a user based on public information about him available online. Being able to opt in is an interesting idea.
You have to put a javascript on your registration page and then you see all your new signups in a realtime dashboard with added social context, like the screenshot on the home page. You also get email alerts whenever someone who is really influential signs up.

There is also the option of calling a REST api to send us new signups.
