Your site seems to be down. Think about moving the code over to Heroku now, and keep scaling to meet demand. If you don't have the cash, email me and I'll front you what you need to keep it up until you figure out how you want to roll with

And twitter. They haven't shut down the wikileaks account, and my wild guess is that it's not because nobody is pressuring them too.

I respectfully disagree that we stole the dashboard design. We were definitely inspired by pivotal tracker bit we didn't steal anything.

It should work smoothly for you as a one-man team. But the real magic starts to happen when more people get involved and start needing to make decisions together. If you know that your team will remain just you, it might be overkill. I woul
