I'm not criticizing rebranding (although anyone would agree that rebranding this many times in less than a year of existence is abnormal).

I'm criticizing how they pretend this is a new product launch.

[I'm the CEO of Fog Creek, which made Glitch.] I don't think we intended to indicate it's a new product launch so much as our community features and focus are new. It's a hard balance to strike without confusing people who've never heard of any of it.

And yeah, the renamings are embarrassing because they're mistakes that were on me to catch. Won't happen again, but fortunately I have a team that is very understanding and I hope our community is, too.
