Thanks for pointing that out. We switched over to Middleman from Wordpress and we're slowly building it out custom as we go. We get in a little work here and there in our spare time, but I think you've pointed out that we've got a ways to g

That's strange, I'll take a look at that tonight when my wife lets me wrestle the iPad out of her hands. I think she thinks it's hers... =)

It's a pretty looking website, you hired a good designer to help you skin it Kirill. Nice. What's the main difference between you and dribbble? They let you people message designers about projects too, no? Good luck!

The point isn't to educate HN users about why SOPA sucks, it's to throw a roadblock in front of people and say "rather than spending the usual 10 minutes reading posts, pick up your phone and call your representative and complain" It's abou

I suppose that depends on what you mean by heavy sprint. 3-months long is excessive and burnt me out, but 1 month is not so bad. I totally disagree that it should be a once in a lifetime of a company type event to do a month long sprint. Ma
