Herkou is famous as being the first Rails PaaS to gain traction that was really "easy" to get started and push live.
This experience felt very similar - an impressive feit indeed, a similar feeling to what Herkou instilled the first time I saw their service.
The drag-and-drop web architecture super-easy-deployathon has that same slick awesome vibe (which is a good thing!), but coupling that with a similar layout, color scheme, and information architecture and its the first thing I jumped to.
Not a bad connection per se, but the original thought was "the guy that did the www site sweats herkou hard".
Haha. Well I am the designer of the www, my and ide site, and whilst I like Heroku's site, I don't "sweat it hard"!
But seriously, thanks for this, I thought beyond the dark colour scheme and (very different shades of) purple there wasn't much more similarity. Next time I'm doing some redesigning I'll try and move it a bit further away.
