- freshyill 11y agoI was bummed. They had an amazing bunch of developers, but there was just great talent all around. It was also nice because it was a great change of pace here in DC. It was by far the biggest player in the startup scene in DC in 2011 and 2012. I think just having it around encouraged others to try to build "the next LivingSocial". There's plenty of smaller startups here today, but nothing fills the same role. We need more fun companies in DC, even if it's Office of Company Culture-mandated-dusty-Xbox-fun.
