    Congrats Matt. Actually saw you at the Valleywag thing on Friday and didn't have a chance to say hi. Between this news and the recent acquisition of someone else who was there (haven't seen the news break yet, so don't want to break it) it was a good party to be at!

    Matt,

    Your investors are smart guys but I'm sure that whatever valuation you have received, was too low. Keep up the great job.

    Wishing you and the Venturebeat team continuous success.

    Good news for WP based content sites

    Congrats Matt. Creating original content is difficult. Being a one man band running around the valley is different than building a multiperson editorial organization. Building a company from scratch is difficult - congrats on the milestone.

    However costs will be increasing and you will need to scale your revenues.

    I have to admit that I've stop reading your site because others sites have been faster and deeper with the news. Having a team will help bring back your mojo again.

    Can't wait to see the scaling.

    btw: the traffic question regarding alexa and compete always comes up when everyone knows how inaccurate those tools are.

    Congrats!

    However, my concern is about the quality of the posts. I've been reading since VentureBeat was still SiliconBeat. My personal opinion is the post quality back then was higher. The articles were more in depth, better coverage, better analysis, and reflected the personalities of the staff writers. Most readers of VentureBeat are pretty tech-savvy. I don't think we come here to read some short paragraphs that seem to be more like PR pieces that we can easily find other places. I'd prefer Digg for that.

    Anyway, still congrats on this new milestone. Keep up the good work!
