What would I do if I discovered another site like DevLids?

Since it's a non-commercial project it primarily would not be a big deal. I'd try to get in touch with the author and see what happens. I would try to do the old-fashioned link-exchange, where I link to them and they link to me.

I would definitely keep going since it's not a lot of work and I made lots of nice connections around DevLids, especially on Twitter. And with soon over 400 submitters after a year, it's worth keeping up!
