Yes, but I'm not interested in visiting the profile, because as you say it's usually blank. The person's website though would be something I would visit, and most people don't hide their websites on blogs. EDIT: I should clarify: When a person writes a comment, it's the comment itself that would lead me to wonder what this person is all about. I'll click on his name. I'm not interested in a "profile", I'm expecting a website. The fact that I get the YC profile means I stop looking, and go back to reading the article. As such I never really figure out who the person is.
