As of January 1, 2010 we’re operating this site as GitHub, Inc.
What does that mean for you? In a word: nothing.
We originally incorporated Logical Awesome LLC prior to launching GitHub thinking that it would be just one of a number of brands we were going to release. GitHub took off in a serious way, so instead of continuing to confuse people with an obscure company name, we made the decision to change it to the obvious choice when we converted from a LLC to a C-Corp.
Here’s to another awesome year with your favorite code host!
