On the project site there's 'Who's using Pylons Project software', didn't realize large public-facing sites like digg and cars.com are using Pyramid.

Well, actually...

Most of those logos were added in 2011. Pyramid 1.0 had just been released, and many of those companies might not have migrated from earlier iterations of Pyramid, including Pylons and BFG. The logos were added for all Pylons Project projects, including Pylons the web framework, so it would be more accurate to say, "All of these companies used Pylons Project subprojects at some time, and the most likely web framework that they were using was Pylons."

Which brings up another point about Pyramid and other Pylons Projects projects: we suck at marketing the awesome products because we spend all our time writing code instead. Of course, that's a sweeping generalization, yet not inaccurate.

Several marketing efforts have been under perpetual development, but not deployed, including the following.
