Gotcha, thanks! Would've expected to just have it redirect the permalink to the existing thread rather than just load an empty page.

Really neat! Why did you have to shutdown the website? Edit: I'm referring to the customer research website you guys made, mentioned in the post.

Absolutely on the same page with you on this after researching Angular some more over the past couple of weeks. I mentioned Angular because a couple of companies I'd like to work at use it. I was thinking about trying React for views +
