- coryl 16y agoWow, talk about hype. That kind of quote is like bubble era speculation, just feeding the frenzy. I always wondered why Slide was kept in such high regard when all they made was slideshows and facebook apps. I mean, sure the guy has a reputation, but what were they making that was so noteworthy and game changing?
