He says Kiln has some advantages over github in the corporate space, while github has features for socialized open source coding:

    So, specifically, Kiln gives you corporate things like:

    * code reviews
    * access control and permissions
    * fast code search
    * a news feed to follow code you care about
    
    GitHub gives you things that match the sociology of open source projects:
    
    * public home pages
    * a social network, with profiles
    * fork and pull workflow
But doesn't github actually provide at least two of the four points he mentions for Kiln?

As somebody who uses hosted kiln, finding and reading code on github is so much faster it's not even funny. Every time I go to kiln to look at the blame for a page, I despise it.

The code review tool on kiln is also sub-par compared to the pull-request review tool in github (and boy is it ugly).
