I think they could easily beat GitHub on something like the social experience of coding as well as gists in general. The Gist system is not terrible, but it is far from perfect - after the new update, it no longer saves my log-in, for one.

BitBucket don't have to be the go-to place for projects. GitHub tries to be many things, but doesn't succeed at all of them. Projects and pages is probably where they're the best.




Two things that are missing from Gist's for me:

1. The ability to save a commit message with revisions of a file in a Gist

2. The ability to reference a specific revision of a Gist file when embedding it.

But yeah the login thing is pretty annoying.
