Why do people "explain something for the uninitiated" and the proceed to write about something that only the initiated would care about? I enjoyed reading the piece, but next time skip the "uninitiated" bit if there is no chance the uninitiated will read or care about the content.
I did that because I have designers who read my blog and don't know WTF github is. They might be interested in the user experience aspect of the post, but could be completely unaware about source control or github.
I'm glad that I did not come off as too much of a jerk. If you think about it there was a lot more that would need to be explained than simply what github.com is.
The network graph could be awesome but for anything with more than 4 forks its just an odd looking subway map.
