Hey, sorry about that. I'm using a wordpress theme that probably does a bit too much of this and I hadn't realized (I just launched the blog a couple of days ago). I've tracked down and removed the scrolling effect already an

Hey, I sent you an email. Not sure what's wrong here. You just scroll once and go to the bottom of the document then? Maybe some hyperactive css rules? EDIT: OK, should be fixed now. There was a nicescroll jquery plugin in there, which

Yup. Agreed with everything. Tried "customer success" for example and the results were not valuable. Tried "startups" and got lots of results, but that might be too broad of a topic. Technically I'd say this is pret
