Because it's P.R. for HiveHire. Why does P.G. use Posterous sometimes?

Actually I didn't tell the 25 startups to use HireHive. The HireHive founders convinced them. It was easy because they're all desperate to hire.

And Posterous I use because I genuinely like it. Before Posterous we never blogged at all, because it seemed like too much trouble.

Yeah, I didn't think you told them to use it. I've just noticed that the YC community seems to use eachother's products in order to achieve a compounding synergy-type effect, even if it sometime seems a bit odd, like this.

Also, I didn't draw the distinction between your essay site and "blogging." Makes sense now.

I'm pretty sure I remember a Y Combinator Weebly blog. Also there was the Infogami PG blog, but I suppose that was you, not your company.
