I was thinking that too. Though to be fair in this particular case they seem to be following the TechCrunch tradition of running linkbait guest posts on weekends (when there is less real news).

It's sad, given that so many good startups would love to get any kind of press coverage, weekend or not. Every time I see a worthless article on TC, I think, "There's 500 words that some good startup would have loved to have, and the audience probably would have enjoyed it more, too."

Would be interesting to see what percentage of posts covered the really big companies vs startups on there. Feels pretty skewed towards the ever small and often pointless detail of the big tech companies rather than startups.

Well I would disagree they don't have rose tinted glasses and will call out the emperors new clothes when required.

Ive seen plenty more spun for SEO linkbait on here which are gaming the system to post articles with tons of affiliate links for hosting companies
