Reminds me of his Mixergy interview http://mixergy.com/brad-feld-interview/. He's the kind of VC I'd like to do business with.

Product is great, but I think distribution is waaay overlooked in the startup world.

I submitted this yesterday and it got [dead]ed. Weird.

It's a dupe. http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1314787

It's like the App Store. Things get disapproved occasionally for unknown reasons. Like the App Store, most posts make it through, but some submissions are rejected while other similar submissions do not.

I think I may have accidentally left some extra URL junk on the end, from my feed reader, but that's the only thing I could think of. I tried resubmitting it without that and it seemed ok, but then I got rid of it, thinking that if indeed it irked the powers that be, best to not insist.

I definitely read this yesterday and HN seems like the most likely place I would've seen it. Maybe yours got dupe deaded and this one somehow didn't.
