One of our projects, hand me downs, was reviewed today by Paul Glazowski over at mashable.com (link to article). The review was quite positive which is a nice boost of enthusiasm for us at LEMUR.

We've been slaving over a hot stove to get the handmedowns.com cake out of the oven, so it is nice to read someone outside the project say, "Technically speaking, Handmedowns.com is fairly well engineered. It's easy enough for most any user to understand, making one's effort to browse a real walk in the park."
