I like Summrly. It came in to my attention when it was featured in the Appstore as Editor's Choice. I have been poking around Circa for the last two week as well and I prefer this format better. It's more playful, more to discover. It took

Not handled professionally on the designers part. He could have turned this into a win by being their go-to-guy for future contract work or getting referrals to other YC residents instead. I don't think it was worth resorting to public sham
