Yes, I do realize that Web sites with ads are sometimes looked down upon, especially in the tech community. Because that's how I used to feel. But recently I started embracing the fact that ads are what makes the Internet free. Without them, we'd have to pay 5 cents for every email and 15 sent for every search. I'll see what I can do about the design, though. Maybe I can make it less "messy".

And, none of the ads on the home page are paid, by the way. They are links to other very good startups[1].

No, he means the entirety of your site looks like a domain squatting ad page. Most domain squatters put categorized ads on their pages, and your links look similar to that. Have a think about the design of your content. But two thumbs up for the idea.
