I guess deal flow trumps everything else. MG Siegler can almost certainly generate significant deal flow (I assume this was the same thesis behind getting Kevin Rose on board). Yeah, he's seen as a goofball of the internet, but I guess all that really matters here is finding the interesting deals and getting them through the door. I have no problem believing that MG can do that. As they'd say, "MG has substantial visibility."

In addition to visibility, I can imagine having an advisor that worked in and is well connected in the tech press world would be beneficial to many startups. I think he can offer some insight into a blindspot for many startups. While his reporting was too biased and too often linkbait for my taste, his writing never led me to believe he is stupid.
