As a recently-returned-to-the-fold knitting geek , I’ve been amazed by Ravelry. It’s incredible. TechCrunch didn’t take it seriously. Condescending attitude aside, they should. As of right now, the site has 258,711 users and counting, with thousands online at the same time. These aren’t geeks trying out the new online toy. For the most part, these are people who take their hobby very seriously.

Those of us who live in tech and read all the blogs have been speaking the language for years. We switched to Firefox back at version 1something, had @gmail.com addresses since when they were hard to get, and have forgotten more userIDs than most folks will ever have. But from time to time something in tech clicks in the real world in a good way. You stop having to explain to “normal&# friends and family what you’re talking about because they’re doing it, too.
Expert insights. Personalized for you.
