Hey p4wnc6, welcome to Hacker News. I've downvoted your post - here's why.
The comment isn't particularly insightful. It espouses your opinion (totally OK) without any reason or rationale (not OK). Why is it better? What could this company learn from Learning Catalytic's product? Is this just observation, or are you uniquely qualified to judge these two products?
The link is completely superfluous. It goes to a login page and doesn't tell me anything about the company or product. Also, a note on style, links are typically just left inline http://google.com or in parens (http://google.com) but that's orthogonal to what matters - insightful comments.
(a) I am a grad student who works with Mazur and the post-doc who founded Learning Catalytics, so I think I am in a position to make a useful comparison. (b) I only intended to offer my opinion because, as the other commenter mentioned, some people feel Learning Catalytics is very different and I don't. I specifically wanted to avoid a lengthy back-and-forth about the nuances between the two. My two cents is that anyone who would use this product would be better served by Learning Catalytics. (c) The web link was just to alert you to the the existence of Learning Catalytics. If you want details, search harder. (d) I don't care about link style, especially not in a one-line comment. My comment wasn't hard to read or obtrusive, so why are you splitting hairs about the formatting?

I hope that's helpful!
