I hate following links to blog posts about some software that don't quickly summarise what it does. I do some iOS dev, but I haven't heard of parse - if it's awesome you could have interested me, but instead I just read an insiders-only blog post and shrugged. Shame!
These Parse posts are getting quite old. I know they are YC funded, but would it be possible not to include posts for minor features?
I think these stories get up-voted because they're actually interesting to other mobile developers, not because the Parse guys are somehow using YC to game the system.
yup parse is one of the most exciting companies right now for mobile developers like myself.
Does anyone know how they compare to Stackmob? At first glance it looks quite similar.
