FanSnap Is Now Part of SeatGeek

The (overly) dramatic coverage of this on Forbes: http://www.forbes.com/sites/karstenstrauss/2013/12/19/seatge...

I went to the article imagining the worst, due to the overly ill-spirited title on HN "SeatGeek Acquires Better-Funded Competitor FanSnap".

Fortunately they only mention the funding in regards to them acquired co. having funding before SeatGeek started. Which is a testament to hard work, and not needing to be the first to launch a similar idea to succeed.

The title needs to be changed on HN though.

This is awesome. Congrats to the SeatGeek team.

Likewise, congrats to Jack, Russ, et al.

An instance where headline should be corrected (currently: "SeatGeek Acquires Better-Funded Competitor FanSnap").

FanSnap strikes me as a better name.
