Some of us grew up watching him on TechTV, then he catches magic in a bottle with Digg, has a chance to sell for hundreds of millions, tragically loses that chance as his company loses traction and the upstart competitor (Reddit) becomes the one hosting amas by actors and politicians.
His story is almost Jobsian.
That is my honest, constructive criticism of a company aimed at high end watch aficionados.
I'm sure there's a lot we don't know, but it seems pretty straightforward.
It's entirely possible that he wanted his GV role to continue but he did not succeed there. It's also possible that the cover story is true. We will likely never know.
He is basically trying to find a little niche to mine for a small win, not change the world. That's so fascinating to me.

I wonder what (obviously poorly crafted) filter/rule it triggered.. Too many dashes?
I don't think there's any correlation with porn.
Is my browser just making the link not obvious?
I found episode 3 on youtube. I think there are only 4 or 5 episodes, but they are hilarious and informative. He even interviewed Kevin Mitnick in this episode. This was really before he was famous. I think he started Revision 3 after that, and then went on to start Digg.
Highlight of the night, and was very gracious.
