Flybridge Capital is advertising on TechCrunch. Sign that the end is nigh? VCs advertising on TechCrunch? #
@technosailor’s leaving b5 post makes techmeme! Hire a great guy, or apply for a great job, either way works for us! #
Lol, you can register as an investor @ raisecapital.com and do competitive intelligence on other companies raising funding ;-) #
Financial Post article on DemoCamp (mentions b5): http://tinyurl.com/2tso2q #
@tdhedengren – Yeah, we’re big fans of hiring smart people, so even if someone doesn’t feel they’re an immediate fit we want them to say hi! #
@davidcubed – yeah, by mid-year we’ll be hiring mid-level folk as well, from devs to designers to community folk. Let’s chat :) #
Wow @ how far http://www.theglobe.com has fallen… from a multi-billion dollar IPO to … trying to sell .travel TLDs… #
Video interview with theglobe.com founders: http://tinyurl.com/3a3w78 #
List of 25 most popular blogs: http://tinyurl.com/2khbcy. b5 ignored. Colour me surprised. </sarcasm> #
@davidcubed – yep, it’s always fun to see discussion stirred up and to get some inside data on companies that are often closed-mouthed! #
@tdhedengren – by revenue/traffic/etc we’d be mid-list somewhere. Won’t give you a specific place though, lest I give away secrets! #
@tdhedengren – how’s this: above gigaom, below techcrunch ;-) #
@mmarquit – we’re used to non-US companies not being on these lists. I emailed the guy. His response: "Thanks for emailing us!" … Um, yeah #
@zachflauaus – we’re used to it. Remember, we only got our first ever techcrunch mention last week! End of the day, we’re doing fine! #
@saleemkhan – lol, I hope not! #
To reiterate, we don’t mind not being on these lists. Surprised, but don’t mind. We grow just fine without the additional coverage :) #
Just noticed PopSugar didn’t make the list either, and we’re about the same size (traffic and revenue), so I feel better now :-D #

Whoa… courier just walked in and he looks ALMOST exactly like my dad… Close enough that it’s still scary 10 minutes later… #
@compujeramey – not really, though I did watch Big Bang Theory last night (first TV at home in over a month) #
lol, thanks @lizstrauss… not sure what for, but thanks! #
Riding scooter to work, then having 4 hours of snow = awkward… #

After 4months in shop, bike still won’t start. Shop says this is because "it wasn’t ridden for a couple of days, draining the battery". #
@marshallk – most bloglines users read by "all" or by "folde", allowing you to read it in a "river" style. Better than one item at a time ;) #
