I think it's more about hiding college credentials than hiding the portfolio.

It would be great to allow programmers to show their portfolios, but that would likely enable interviewers to google them, giving away their backgrounds.

I have a few interesting projects in my portfolio that I am proud of, a reasonably high CS GRE score (a test which is unfortunately not administered any more), and a moderately good topcoder history. However, after being told by an HR person that they would not hire me because of the college I went to (a for-profit college) I started to view the relation between hiring and credentials as illegitimate. So for that reason I hope TripleByte catches on.
