Fashion App Stylechat and Openmind Netowrks Golgi. And Polyvore User/CEO Jess Lee.

The Stylechat app is using Openmind Netowrks Golgi communications engine.http://blog.golgi.io/golgi-partners-with-fashion-app-stylechat
"StyleChat will use Golgi’s intelligent delivery engine to enable in-app messaging, actionable notifications and real-time updates."
Interesting :)
I work in Openmind.

And the following is interesting. Jess Lee while working at Google started using Polyvore - a fashion online picture+link clip set making tool and sharing network. She sent in detailed description of bugs and feature reports. Moved to work on Polyvore and has now become CEO.
