I don't really agree with the claim, but I'd love to see Github enter other areas of science like Physics, Maths, Chemistry, etc. Not just programming and computer science. That would be great, Github could work as a center of science all around the world.
Obviously with $100M cash, big things will be coming for GitHub. It is hard to imagine that they haven't thought about other collaborative communities.
Will big things be coming? I hope they use that money to grow on the core things they are good at rather than try to capture markets which don't need capturing.
They have a unique position in that almost 100% of its users can only say good things about it (bar maybe Torvalds).
I want small things from Github, glorious small things.
It could work as a center of collaboration all around the world. Until [Gobbler](http://gobbler.com) came out, I was using Git as a means of version-controlling my music projects (even going so far as to branch and merge the project, my DAW allows me to do this without touching audio files since all changes are saved to a new file). GitHub has shown us that you can create an extremely powerful collaboration tool around Git, all you have to do is design a user interface that's simple, elegant and familiar to those involved. I can't wait to see what other companies do with Git.
