Why did black resign from this position?

If I had the position I probably wouldn't have resigned (but I'm a late resigner most of the time 
) yet but I feel that white is a little better (at least) and black doesn't seem to have a lot of options. Of course, I'm not the strongest player either, so maybe black has more than it looks like.
I think black has missed that he has the e5 move :) When I saw this position I thought-"This is lost that knight has to move and the queenside pawns will fall in time. Well e5-Bg3-b5 and I think white stands better,but black is ok :)
If its white to move your winning a piece on c7

It was black to move.
By the way, how much time did the opponent still have on the clock? I see that it was an 8 minute game with 7 sec increment.
It is black to move

I totally agree. I tend not to resign until it turns from a fight into an execution.
