Not to mention they have a solid team. Lots o' technical chops there. Interestingly enough, they're mostly a Ruby shop if I'm not mistaken.

Beginner or not, every time I stand up a new Rails application I find picking my head up and seeing what gems others are using is well worth the investment. References like this, along with recent Railscasts etc., are invaluable.

"Block storage is not a cloud-friendly technology". Based on every post-mortem I've read thus far, it's clear how AWS and it's customers approach EBS will change.

I wish more companies (hell people) were as forthright, pragmatic, and sensible as the Heroku gang. Their breakdown and response to the outage is exactly what me as a paying customer wants to hear. Kudos!

Perhaps not in total population but Boulder definitely has a solid startup presence, relatively speaking (SimpleGeo, OneRiot, TechStars, ...). update: But certainly, LA and Chicago (mentioned elsewhere) are good additions.

For developers, we're about connecting them to projects that they'll likely be interested in contributing to; these projects may or may not be most forked or trending. A lot of repository identification is word of mouth which, for those on

@defunkt We'll get on that ASAP. Nothin' but love.

Social is a little misleading. It's more about connecting developers to projects. For contributors, it's about finding projects that would be of interest to them. For maintainers, it's about finding developers to fill the needs of their pro

Added a quick note about only using emails once and only once. We'll add an about page in the coming day profiling each of us.

Hi. We're Chris (@chrisbaglieri), John (@codingjester), Josiah (@bluepojo), and Aaron (@aaronfeng). This company was born over the course of 54 hours at Philadelphia Startup Weekend. The emails will be used once and only once, to announce w

Yeah, working on that too. Our creative juices started to run dry after the weekend sprint. We'll refresh that in the coming days.

You raise a great point. Still stuff to work out. This is the result of 54 hours of work (Philadelphia Startup Weekend) so definitely expect more in the coming weeks.

While not an attribute of an API itself, providing libraries in a variety of languages or supporting libraries developed by your users also plays a critical role in uptake.

Personally, it's less the lack of community and more the lack of OSS adoption as a result of the lack of community that's a hindrance. .NET developers need to stop drinking Microsoft's Kool-Aid and explore what's out there. If nothing else

Me personally, no, but it raises an interesting point. I could see a market in "scoring" reviews using models based on data sets similar to the one examined here.

by chrisbaglieri 16y ago
Let me clarify, my comment was in regards to personal exploration and nothing beyond that. Most add-ons have a basic, very limited, free option. The same goes for the pricing on Heroku's platform. If you're rockin' an app that needs to

It would be fun to expose this data (perhaps with a few additional dimensions?) and hack up an extension/greasemonkey script to rip out reviews that fit a certain criteria.

Heroku just gets it. Top-notch hosting aside, for personal exploration, there's no better platform: frictionless, free, and dead simple.

Well that was fast! It would seem the goal has already been met. Nothing more impressive than a strong community.

I was surprised Simulchart did not make TCs short list. It's superbly executed, a perfectly functional beta product (I've been told by the developers themselves that they plan on taking it over the finish line in the coming weeks), has a d
