It made me really happy today to see FaceStat and Dolores Labs in Slate. It brought in less traffic than the wall street journal, or even ny daily news, but it’s not every day your site is featured in your favorite magazine
. And they even talked a little about the fun research we’ve been doing.Some of the better quotes:Slate: “It’s market research for the individual! Not some shallow exercise for the insecure!”news.com.au: “Facestat site perfects public humiliation.”CNet: “What happens when Hot or Not hooks up with Google Analytics” What does that mean?Thrillist: “You look at yourself in the mirror every morning and think, “what a handsome, intelligent, athletic, manly man I am!”, but how does the rest of the world really interpret your neckbeard? Find out the awesome/horrible truth, with FaceStat.”Buzzfeed: “Reinforcing Shallow Stereotypes. Now Online!”Miss Bimbo: “FaceStat is sad.”
