I'm thinking more orientation / ratio - for example, right now the wall behind my couch in the living room is bare and I would love a landscape print for it. On VSUAL I have to manually scroll through to see the ones that have that orientation. This is something that Art in Res has on their search function.

You realize this is talking about one of the sellers on the platform right? Not the platform itself.

Looks like GMV is actually ~1.2B/year and even at a conservative 10% profit margin, they're pulling in at least $120M/year.

"The company said its revenue more than doubled in the last year, with gross product sales topping $100 million a month. It has expanded into streetwear and luxury goods like handbags and has more than 800 employees."

this is really cool - anything like this for HipChat/Slack/Gchat/other clients?

I installed, logged out of Gmail, restarted my browser and re-logged in.

You also need to click on the actual e-mail address in the e-mail for it to popup, definitely nowhere near as elegant as rapportive and seems to work ~60-70% of the time

I think it's assumed from the article (and the screenshot of the Gmail trail) that the team members have explicitly stated that they don't want to be bothered and don't work with recruiting agencies, this is a total last ditch effort.

At our ~20-person startup, we have a few recs open and I still see multiple people get calls on their mobile phones from recruiters over and over, and in the majority of these cases they don't even know how the recruiter got their number.

I'd also like to see how many hours on average someone making $90K in gross revenue in NYC is working.
