Rose also worked for Google Ventures, so he has connections.

He moved to Google after his startup Oink/Milk crashed and burned, of course.

Connections seem to be all that matters.

In the show "Silicon Valley" they even made a joke about how Rose had to fail at a bunch of stuff before he could "succeed" with Digg, and then subsequently failed at a bunch of other stuff afterward as well.
