uh, and what makes you think that? I work in the NY tech sector and would argue the opposite. The Behance network has one of the better tech teams in the city.
I'm going to agree with you re:the opposite. The Web Design Served category (supposedly the best of the best on the site) posts some seriously awful stuff (stock photos, overuse of textures, bad typography, poor UX practices). When I emailed them to ask who curated the site and if they were an actual web designer or just a random intern, I was told it was curated by the entire web design department. I stopped visiting Behance after that.
