Even though I've always been a bit repulsed by Product Hunt, I'm really glad to see it succeeding - hopefully it will take the whole startup daily news/gossip business away and leave HN with the cool hacks and new tech, As Its Creator Intended.

(Why am I repulsed by PH? Not sure, but I tend to lump it in with the whole cargo cult, ping pong tables, beers kegs, fashion and gossip and startups Valley scene. The most common context in which I encounter it is people asking me to vote them up so they can get 'discovered', as if entrepreneurship were Hollywood or Nashville. It's a meta-startup for discussing other people's startups; it's a carbuncle on a vain, self-absorbed slice of our industry. I guess it serves a niche well and I'm just repelled by the niche.)
