So much for staying stealth(http://techcrunch.com/2012/08/22/shhh/)

I'll take the liberty of releasing it now just because it was so easy to gain access to the site. Just use FB to connect and your in. This is exactly why staying in so called "stealth" is ridiculous. Sorry but this reminds me of Color.com's release.

"As in stop being in stealth mode. Stop asking for advice. Stop doing your start-up. You're not ready."

This reads like a poorly-executed Onion story. This is either a terrible parody or one of the best examples of how tech "journalism" has become a complete joke.

Can you imagine a story on the front page of the NYTimes: "Something crazy going on somewhere in the world, but we're not sure where or what."
