Ohh, pq ... will you _ever_ have positive karma? :-P

I like the idea in general, but it's probably not fair game to make statements that imply something false.

Some are fairly safe bets, though - if a company is defunct, it's not coming back. Same goes if it's purchased. And funding events or major press mentions are probably noteworthy enough to include.

Monthly updates of active projects would be reasonable. I'm curious which projects are dead, which wouldn't need to be updated often :-P

Monthly updates by whom? You gonna heard fifty cats (or startup founders) into doing anything that doesn't involve free food? I doubt it.

By fan or the founders. Wikipedia is essentially designed for herding cats. That's just another name for user-generated content.

I voted down pg on his own site. That was fun!

That's actually 'pq'.. I fell for it too.

D'oh! Fonts...too...tiny...must squint...

how sly!
