I think what everyone here is missing is that the press is looking for "Tech" companies doing wild, innovative things with technology. -The WSJ article was in the "technology news and insights" section. -TechCrunch has the word Tech in its name. -Demo Day is held at the computer history museum -this is Silicon Valley

Sorry I didn't attend demo day, but when I read the summary I felt none of the companies were very high tech, and I'm sure that's what the press felt too. I was waiting for Peter Thiel to say: "we asked for flying cars and you gave us painless divorce."

Don't get me wrong, I would love to invest in companies that make money over companies that use some fancy new technology.
