How are you monetising the service? Charging people for curation?

  Right now it's completely unscalable, we just want to see if people find value in the personal touch vs an algorithm, as well if people prefer a small amount of high interest content rather than lots of mediocre stuff.

    It does seem unscalable, indeed; I asked how you plan on monetising the service, though?

      it sounds like this first phase is more market testing than the final product - I suspect if interest is high then they will have enough data and potential buyers to formulate a business plan.

        That sums it up

        My thoughts exactly. And we see articles on this kind of strategy on HN all the time. Typically they get a bunch of positive, "I like this in the abstract realm/will try this in the future"-type feedback. So I am a little surprised by the disbelief this particular instance is receiving.
