Shutterstock Acquires Envato

I religiously read Nettuts+ back in the day. Jeffrey Way had the most amazing posts. When envato unified their tutorial sites the quality disappeared overnight and I quickly stopped reading.

I guess the decline of Envato shall continue.

I love Envato Tuts! I had no idea Shutterstock was a public company until now. Congratulations, Envato team.

It's a big company. Their office is in the Empire State Building. My friend worked there and it was so cool to go to their floor which is one of a few that have a terrace.

Jeffrey Way has run Laracasts for over a decade now and it's way better.

It is... I miss the diversity of topics on nettuts but the quality of laracasts is worth it.

I really am curious to see how this will affect Theme Forest with all these WordPress (and not only) themes and templates.
