Meta: I think it would be very helpful if "rate my startup" posts would include a short description of what the startup does in the title.

Can you suggest an edit that would be useful?

Here are some that I can think of: iter8r - A community operated social news site iter8r - Because transparency is not a just a plastic film :-) iter8r - We are "Open for business"

> A community operated social news site

Aren't all social news site community operated ?

> Because transparency is not a just a plastic film

Reveals nothing about your business.

> We are "Open for business"

Reveals nothing about your business.

I personally think it's important to both emphasize that you're a social news site and that you pay the users for their contributions. Something like "Social news shared both ways", not sure -- I find it easier to criticize bad slogans than to come up with good alternatives.
