    For a blog novice, I've found the site amazingly simple to roam around. The depth of information is awesome.

    I have been a beta tester for Regator for several weeks now and think the site is awesome. Definitely try it out. It's a great way to find quality content relevant to your interests. No clutter, just good stuff.
  • PaulGlazowski · 1 year ago
    Absolutely. Less clutter=better experience. Unless clutter is desired, of course :)

    looks like a blatant rip off of Afrigator.com to me.
  • JBagley · 1 year ago
    I'm with Tim Menson on this one - a total and blatent ripp-off of Afrigator.com.

    C'mon, did you really think you would get away with it?

    Hi! I am one of the co-founders of Regator.

    We’re sorry you feel upset about this, but we had not even heard of afrigator until reading these comments. really. The reason we are called regator is because it a shortened form of agg-”regator” (that and the domain was available). The alligator made an obvious mascot and they are green so we chose a palate to match.

    I can honestly say that it is pure coincidence… and we are sorry if we have offended anyone. It was not our intent.

    I've tried all the different sites invite codes, and nothing good today for me, but for some reason I want in the beta, it looks cool, so any xtra invites floating around please send one my way

    Thanxx

    I had the pleasure of chatting with Justin and the afrigator guys today and they have retracted what they said earlier about Regator doing anything close to copyright infringement as our site is anything but identical to theirs, even by coincidence, once they actually saw the site and we had a chat. They are good guys and this was just a misunderstanding that snowballed. Shows you can't believe everything you hear on the internet...
    You can see Justin's post here: http://justinhartman.com/2008/07/04/regatorcom-...
