How Many People Will Throw Stones At Glassdoor.com?

From TechCrunch: Stealth Startup Glassdoor.com Takes $3M Series B

They say that people in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones, but what about people who are watching people build glass houses, er doors?  Dot com.  The management team is definitely solid, and the information sparse, so why don’t we just make some stuff up?

I like this quote from their page:

…except that we think it’s pretty unique and going to be a lot of fun to build…

You know what else was fun to build?   Zillow.  I’m not sure I want to run around bragging that I have the ex-CEO (Richard Barton - why’d he leave??) of a questionable business, with an unbelievable amount of invested capital, and little to show in terms of a sustainable source of revenue.  VCs like to get their money back, ya dig?
