NB: It seems you have your DNS/subdomains set up incorrectly. githire.com returns nothing while www.githire.com works. Be sure to set one of them to the canonical url for seo purposes.

honestly DNS still confuses me a bit. I have a CNAME record pointing www to the ec2 public url. What do I do for the naked domain?

I'm sure you're working to fix a couple of issues with your app, so I'm not trying to pile on here. Love the idea, and I just wanted to report two bugs:

1. githire.com/user/acompa returns my account, while www.githire.com/user/acompa returns someone else.

2. Clicking "Add Info" on my profile

githire.com/user/acompa

takes me to the profile of user "edit" via

githire.com/user/edit

You might need to construct your URLs more consistently, it seems?

Set up an A record and point it directly at the IP address.

Edit: on EC2, much better to set up an elastic IP as described below.

Cool idea! - though the projects that show up next to users don't correspond with those users, as I would assume they're supposed to?

I'm mildly confused. What repository is listed alongside a user? My user (http://www.githire.com/user/Shadowfiend ) shows a repository that, to my knowledge, I've never created, forked, or contributed to...

The idea is great, but the implementation is totally broken presently. I tried two times with "Montreal, QC" as a query, the first time it returned only result from London (UK) and the second time only Philadelphia (PA).
