I was expecting Slik[1] to be on this list. Anyone know why it was not included? There were quite a few articles about this company since it was founded by a 15 year old and a 16 year old [2].
There was also a WSJ article[3] today though I did not read it since it's paywalled. Anyway to read the article?

- elmar 9y agowhy create a throw away "slikq" account? any intentions of trolling?
- allenleein 9y ago'slikq'= Slik HQ?
- purple-again 9y agoI'm curious how the crowd around here feels about the ethics of this company. This is a website where we all regularly talk to each other in myname @ the google domain specifically to avoid to spammers picking up our email accounts and bothering us.
