Oh yeah I saw that too! that was awesome wasn't it? I liked the Yelp clone Burrp! I've signed for the service and started browsing the entries.

Does racism exist even in news.yc? Pathetic.

It's not even racism, I'm just asking if he's filipino that's all. If it does help I'm half filipino as well. I'm just interested in the startup development in the Phils.
