A quick apology
About Us
About Us
As you can imagine I've seen hundreds of companies come out of Startup Weekends, but I really think that yours is a total standout, and resonates with me in a way that no other SW company ever has before. You guys have a shot at refactoring the crappy world economy that we're all forced to be part of. That's really important work.
