Yes, I was suckered in by the title, but when I clicked through to their website, I have to say I'm quite impressed.
Very professional, nice and clean, a product and a service business, and brilliant branding (if it works, not so brilliant if it doesn't). The "Steve and Allan" page was great. Who wouldn't want these guys working on their stuff?
Best wishes, guys. Hope to be hearing great things about you.
Not only did they use an existing code base, they used one that they had developed themselves, so it's more like they 'developed an interesting demo based on their existing open source social network software in 40 hours' ;o)
Apart from the fact they used an existing code base to cut a lot of that time short it's a great example.
I think that especially including this fact it's a fantastic example. With the wealth of open source platform apps out there you can really build an app extremely quickly if you're willing to embrace constraints.
