I'm the business co-founder at MakeLeaps in Japan. As a way to scratch my own itch for a simple online profile page, I wrote a spec, registered a domain, and project managed the creation of VanityPageMaker. I considered using http://about.me http://about.me, but somehow I prefer a simple HTML site that I can control, edit and host myself. This kind of site is well within the talents of my co-founder Paul, but I opted to hire and manage freelancers so Paul could continue focusing on managing our small technical team building our invoicing platform for businesses in Japan. Basic Tech Specs: Ruby on Rails + MySQL database + Nginx proxing to Unicorn workers, hosted on Rackspace Cloud Server. This is very much a version 1.0, but all comments and feedback are appreciated. I'm in the process of writing a blog post on how I designed and built VPM as a non-technical co-founder and without writing a line of code.
