I was at Startup School and enjoyed your talk as it gave me some new ideas to think about.

I also worked in media for a time and I think the mischaracterizations in the "third-hand" accounts are less about an emerging gap and more about the huge market for time-waster content on the web.

Valleywag mischaracterized your talk because someone at Valleywag is paid to write half a dozen "pieces" a day that will appeal to a certain audience. Intentionally mischaracterizing things and blowing things out of proportion is necessary to meeting the daily quota of articles.
