Exciting stuff mate. Rails is a lot of fun, which matters most WRT productivity

Can’t wait to use the tool and give it a run.

Cheers,

Dion

Congats, Ben! Can’t wait to try it out once you release the first public version. Definitely sounds like something that we could use.

I see, a murky plan that leverages big words got you funding. Congratulations and good luck . . .

No, I think it’s the amazing prototype we have already built that got us the funding, thanks.

We’re just not demo’ing it pre-launch (why would we?)

Plato’s Forms eh? So what’s that?

“So what are we building?

Well, the problem space we are addressing is the perpetuation of of miss-information and inaccurate information within the online news environment.”

I see, a murky plan that leverages big words got you funding. Congratulations and good luck . . .

Glad to see it come together Ben! This is going to be a great project to challenge you with. As bloggers grow in reach with news organizations losing audience, the editorial layers that were once in place are sorely missed.

I hope your service brings a nice check and balance to new media!
