Hi Swapnil,

In the second <p>(paragraph) tag within the section that Nick defines is an anchor tag like the one below

<a href="http://twitter.com/nickrp">@nickrp</a>

The CSS that is setting the color for the text of the anchor tag is within the main.css file on this line (it's line 157 for me)

a {
  color: #6ab47b;
}

Hope this helps ?
