It's a hard problem to solve. Currently, I still haven't found product market fit yet - with TheyMadeThat's most apparent weakness being the lack of data, but I still can't fully let go because making people aware of who made their stuff matters. People know it's a problem and they like the idea of solving it. Unfortunately, people do not love my solution. Not enough people loved other higher profile solutions like Makerbase from Anil Dash and Gina Trapani either. I don't know to fix it.
Interesting features aside from associating people with contributing to the "iPhones" of the world:
* Seeing the relationships between different things i.e.
-- evolution (predecessors/successors),

Feedback is welcome. Feel free to not be nice. It tends to be the most useful feedback.
