But we are your readers, agree? What everyone is just curious with is the how your thought process is for selecting startups that you cover. There are tons of startups that are just like streakr, have not much to show, but you did obviously chose not to mention about them, so ehat put streakr apart from the rest is what I guess I am curious to know. And of course ,you have your rights not to answer to this since "Its your Blog" Well Mike, We know its your blog. But we are your readers, agree?

Myspace is lame so why is an AJAX version of that going to be any different? Well it's not going to be, it's going to be just as lame as the rest of them. And as far as I'm aware a social network that claims to be "Mad max" really doesn't sound that great to me, maybe its the apocalyptic anarchy that turns me off.
