Those sites (TechCrunch and GigaOm) are not cheerleaders, because they do post negative reviews, albeit not for any YC companies (yet).

The uncov blog, OTOH, seems to be all negative (we'll see if that changes in the future).

That maybe because Uncov people (or person?) have technical background. Even though TC and GO did post negative reviews, usually they're not that striking. But TC and GO mostly hyped things up with weak reasoning.

I remember back then when I was caught by the hype of web 2.0, I read TC review about this website called Zooomr. TC said it's like "Flickr on steroid". What happened to Zooomr now? still in beta and seems inactive. Have you seen Zooomr UI? not so good.. it's just Flickr with patches here and there, mashup here and there. I wonder how relevant TC reviews are. Even some of my friends these days have moved on and tagged TC as irrelevant and biased
