A totally different way to think about this post, is that the guy who has posted this post is a bitbucket fan or a clever promoter, so he has listed every point that makes BitBucket differ from Github and is the reason, why it is loved by a lot of guys out there.
If I am correct in my guess, then I really think its a great marketing strategy, and if not then BitBucket guys should really think of marketing in this way.
Hey, had an awesome experience working with Media.net guys. Would definitely recommend giving a try. I had worked earlier with several other, but had the best experience with them.
But that's just a small part of what the sites are doing these days, such as providing free renewal for the second year in case a user allows connecting its Facebook Account, and granting permission to the site to publish any promotion post on the wall of the user(which can be anything more than saying that user has registered an 'example.com' domain name on register.com).
They should have gone for a wider range of things.
Also try doing animations using jquery once you append the list of links with new links, like making the new links come to top, it will help in finding the location of the new links, once the list gets big.
