Surprised by the lack of Asian and Black males. I thought they would have a more diverse team. edit: totally forgot about the East Indians.

I'd be genuinely interested in knowing of which teams do have that kind of diversity.

Off the top of my head, the only one that comes to mind is Inkling [1].

Gojee also based in NYC is another, but they took down their team page for some reason, mostly Asian and Whites. My buddy's startup up Skim.me is another, but they are mostly Asian with a White CTO. I'm not trying to gather a posse against kickstarer, I just thought their would be more non-whites with the geography and focus in tech.

They may not want to give names of everyone because it makes poaching employees by headhunters easier.

Thats me with the Rubik's cube -- I also submitted the link to HN, and FWIW I don't consider myself a hipster.

I have a slight crush on the lady behind you :p. Also, saw this Rubiks cube collection the other day - maybe you'd enjoy! http://imgur.com/a/mbKKS
