Except youporn doesn't exactly have the most solid business model, as the article states. You might still be out of a job.

I wonder if it's different working as a designer vs. working as a developer. Porn sites are kinda known for sometimes having shoddy design. Also working on the graphics side of things it's a lot more directly related to the porn. On the flip side, developing perl for a porn video site probably isn't that much different than developing for youtube or vimeo in terms of technology.

yeah... *registers http://gitoris.com. I wonder if it gets type in traffic?

Seriously tho, don't down mod me I have a serious comment - IMHO, Github is way better just because of the graphics. I know, the old mac vs PC vs Linux debate comes to mind, but seriously graphics make me work better. They makes me happier. And Github is just pretty - the spacing of the letters are nice, the look is all light and pretty, etc. It makes me WANT to submit another commit!

But it's still awesome there are alternatives out there. Way to go, coder gents.
