    • It looks very nice. Only thing I am worried about is how you plan to make it sustainable. I don't fancy spending time filling a profile for everything to disappear in a few months.

    • Just signed up and will fill out a profile later. It’s cool that side projects are highlighted as much as work. How often do you expect people to log on to it and why?
