Alley Reviewer: TechCrunch Event Was Rigged!
Mint's demo wasn't great and they couldn't answer my questions about security. Mike didn't even see a demo of Mint, yet they got into the 40? Mint is this year's silicon valley darling and has received more hype (even though the beta testers couldn't talk about it) than the iPhone and I am willing to bet that's why they won. Why give it to a Korean or Russian startup who leaves the country never to be seen again when they can give it to the guy who is at all the parties, certainly helps for local buzz. CenterNetworks

The whole event was rigged, sponsored companies making the top "40" while their competitors were milked for competitive info.
What a shame. It could've been something great.
