I would have been interested in just a good overview of the company. I did not know the founders did openfeint. I remember that product and considered it for an iOS app I was working on at the time. What I’m not sure about is how to penalize publications for essentially false advertising in editorialized headlines. They want attention to show ads, they have to go about garnering it ethically.
