I am reminded of similar hyping and grandiose claims that Aaron made when he announced both Infogami and web.py. He eventually abandoned Infogami and the main user of web.py - Reddit, has switched to something else.

I really hope he sticks with this. Aaron is a smart guy and it is a shame to see him just leaving behind all these half-finished projects.



Anybody know if infogami went to Conde Nast as well? Nobody's answering their support emails.

Ordinarily I would just leave it behind as a lost cause, but one of the sites I created keeps accumulating spam, and I need the brief attention of someone at the server to take care of it. The thought of junk accumulating on permalinks I created makes me feel dirty..


Infogami (Aaron Swartz) merged with reddit and became reddit.

You can try emailing Aaron Swartz but I'm not sure if he is interested in maintaining infogami. http://www.aaronsw.com/weblog/interruptdriven


I didn't know Reddit switched away from web.py. Do you know what they switched to?


Django I think.


When did reddit switch? I wasn't able to find any reference to that. As of January 2007, it was still web.py:
