		trvlngwlbry on June 19, 2012 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Codecademy closes $10M round This comment reminded me to ask something I had been wondering: does anyone know if there have been any conversations (friendly or otherwise) between the guys at the Chicago-based company CodeAcademy and the New York-based Codecademy (of whom this article is about) regarding trademarks and their respective names? Most people in this forum know that the commenter was referring to Codecademy, but it must be frustrating for the CodeAcademy guys to be getting reviews that mistake them for Codecademy. Was just curious if anyone knows the dynamic between the companies.

Here is the story from one of the co-founders of Code Academy.

I only know his side of the story, but I know Neal and have the highest respect for him. He's a good dude.
