Just to add to the incestuous nature - the runner up, healthcare.love, was created by Taptera employees. Taptera's main investor is Salesforce.

The exact thing happened to me, I shared the same story from Boing Boing and my friends told me what happened:

And, lately, there have been a a bunch of ads from "whitetruffle" that have had my picture and freaked me out.

Spooking me out is not a good way to sell me things.

Love this thing, I've used it on a bunch of projects. The javacript API is great.

I read these unicorn articles and at first think, hey, I'm one of those guys, meaning it can't be that hard. I am no genius, just a decently hard working individual that tends that likes to do things right. I feel comfortable in both worlds, I lead a design team and also lead the direction of some of the engineering efforts of a decent size team (20+).

That being said, it's hard to do both at scale or really well. One is going to suffer as soon as the project gets to a decent size, I notice this every time I try and do it myself. So, props to people who can produce extremely high quality code and designs, that takes a serious focus.

Absolutely amazing, great job. I just got chills from watching the National and feeling like I was back there.

Love it. We're using shopify under ecommerce and I've looked at quite a few others.

Shopify - minimum $29 Amazon Web Stores - $24.99 BigCommerce - $24.95

I could add more data in a sheet and share it if you want.

I've worked in Scientific Websites (Biocompare the main one) for 6 years, and I love what Science Exchange is doing. The old guard of distributor networks, old boy research journals and closed research communities. It's taken a while but the industry is ready.

Biocompare received the same reaction when they launched - "scientists like their distributors and the free swag they get", "they'll never order products themselves". Research is ready for a disruption.

Always a a great idea. I always try to if it's not too pricey.

One property my company holds, http://www.dentalcompare.com has been affected. It's a classic product comparison site (with a lot of problems) but there is not "farming" of content. Every company provides their products and every article is original or at most, a small abstract.

Perfect explanation.
