Imagine this picture being pulled out by your parents to be shown to your first prom date! Anyway, I feel kinda goofy for posting this in your comments section, but I didn't know another way to get in touch with you. I’m a fan of your blog and I also work at a small internet start-up in Berkeley called Redux with a bunch of other (mostly) unshaven 20-something year old guys. We’re building a site that is focused on creating a community around discovery of videos and other media. The last couple of weeks I’ve been tasked with making a list of people that are articulate, enjoy sharing stuff and most importantly have a good eye for interesting content. In short we’re looking for founding community members to be folks who actually care about what's good. As much fun as it has been to be paid to sift through funny video collections on the internet, eventually I have to actually contact these people like you to help us. I don’t really know how to phrase this-- but I think that you’d be a big help in shaping the site with your opinions and showing us how you use it. If you would like to be a part of our big, happy, unshaven family you can find our site at http://redux.com/invitecode/mcs008a You'd be among the first handful of people we are showing this to. If you need any help getting set up with the site or if you have any questions you can email me back at this address (michael@redux.com). We’re developing in a bubble of our own opinions, so I’d really like to hear what you think about the site. Best, Michael Good lord that looks painful, and what is the person with the camera doing instead of helping the kid!
