I found what looks like some old blog posts about it on Google’s Blog Search, but doesn’t tell anything about (the blog is no longer there, and I can’t find a cache)

“BitScrap: we’re looking for an experience Python developer who is fluent in django to work on a big consumer-facing multimedia publishing platform. We are located in Boston, MA and would ideally like someone who is either here or willing to move here. Work is temp-to-perm with nice bennies, a good group of folks, and a very aggressive mission. Basically if you want to come work with Python, Django, and like big hairy audacious goals, send an email to antonio at bitscrap.com or get me on IRC as antrod. ”
