GitHub + Strategy

January 2009

GitHub is currently down. And that is very sad. However, they have an Awesome Angry Unicorn. And this unicorn makes me smile, even though I can't get to any of my projects.

If you're going to make a web application, give it some personality. This will not only keep your userbase entertained, but will serve as a nice insurance package when you let them down.
